Developed for the third consecutive year in partnership with Mer Angels & BNP Paribas Banque Privée, the “Start-up Village” is dedicated to the innovative and intelligent start-ups in the nautical sector. It is located on the Quai d’Honneur at Port Canto in the heart of the Sailing Area. Featuring breakthrough technologies or offering high added-value services, these start-ups are creating the future of yachting: more powerful and often more responsible and environmentally friendly.

EXHIBITING IN THE “START-UP VILLAGE” MEANS:

• benefiting from a spot at the leading in-water boat show in Europe, which welcomed more than 54,000 visitors in 2022

• showcasing your offering to professionals (shipyards, service companies, etc.) and users

• enjoying an offer especially designed to meet your needs as a start-up

As the space is exclusive and limited, candidate start-ups will be subject to a rigorous selection process and must:

1. be between 0 and 5 years old from the 1st euro of sales generated in their main activity

2. be independent of a group

3. be financed by one of the following methods: equity, business angel or investment fund

4. present strong, nautical and responsible innovation (product/service or concept): presentation file to be provided
