This year, the International Charter Expo (ICE), the world’s leading B2B event for the
yacht charter industry, proudly introduces the Superyacht Village: a dedicated space
for companies working with luxury, super yachts over 24 meters. These high-end
charters, often starting at €85,000 per week, demand exceptional service, planning,
and expertise. ICE’25 will welcome charter brokers and central agents from around
the world for three days of intensive networking, deal-making, and strategic
collaboration.
Superyacht Village promises to be more dynamic than ever, thanks to a €100,000
sponsorship by Ankor Software, which will subsidize participation costs for first-time
exhibitors and visitors in the superyacht sector. The initiative is designed to
encourage broader participation and get the attention of key decision-makers from
across the international charter industry.
Companies from the USA, Galapagos Islands, New Zealand, Monaco and more are
joining ICE as a result of this special collaboration with Ankor Software. Their growing
interest shows how the Superyacht Village is attracting attention from top yachting
destinations around the world.
“The superyacht industry has great potential for growth, and by introducing well-
known companies to the Superyacht Village for the first time, we’re bringing fresh
perspectives and new energy to the event,” said Antonija Čagalj, Project Manager at
ICE.
A standout feature that sets ICE apart is its innovative matchmaking system powered
by the custom-built Handshake App. With exclusive access to the app, attendees will
benefit from pre-arranged 1-on-1 meetings with central agents, charter brokers,
shipyards, and service providers up to a month in advance, ensuring every minute of
ICE is focused on meaningful business. This structured format makes ICE one of the
most efficient and results-driven events in the yacht charter industry.
ICE will be held this year from November 12–14, 2025, at EXPO Greater Amsterdam.
After a record-breaking 2024, with 600+ companies from over 55 countries, ICE’25 is
already on track to be even larger with over 80% of booths already booked.
