Join us for our annual New Forest briefing for marine and maritime sector businesses from across the region. Attendees will be marine and maritime businesses and those who do business with those businesses. This is a great opportunity to network with colleagues and clients, to tell your story, share your successes, raise your concerns and learn from each other.
The Solent is home to one of Europe’s most dynamic marine and maritime clusters, and our annual shared Marine & Maritime Business Briefing brings that community together with our colleagues who are part of the New Forest Business Partnership. Attendees include boat builders, marine engineers, innovators in technology, leisure marine, the professional services that support and beyond. This event is a chance to connect with peers, share insights, and hear what’s shaping the sector in 2026.
Held at the Royal Lymington Yacht Club, the briefing features updates from industry voices including Tim Meyer (MDL Marinas), Algie Bennett (Electric Outboard) and Emily Beck (The Build Purser). Join us for networking over coffee before the session, and discover what businesses across the Solent are planning for the year ahead.
