Welcome to The Yacht Racing Design & Technology Symposium
The Yacht Design and Technology Symposium (YRDTS) brings together over 100 senior yacht designers, engineers, and technology experts from the world of performance yacht racing for two days of intense debate and discussions. This leading-edge conference provides a wealth of practical information, solutions and case studies across a range of key areas including composites, rigging, sail technology, coatings, CFD and hydrodynamics, all delivered by leading industry experts.
YRDTS brings innovative thinking and exclusive insight to the major issues and opportunities facing the dynamic performance yacht racing technology and design industry.
The YRDTS is also held in conjunction with the World Yacht Racing Forum (WYRF). Now in its third year. WYRF attracts over 400 delegates from the worlds leading sailing teams, event organisers, sailors, venues, sponsors and many more to discuss and debate the very latest issues facing the business of yacht racing.
With both conferences hosted at the same time, as a participant of the YRDTS you will have the opportunity to network not only with your peers from the design and technology sector of the yacht racing industry, but also with your direct customers from the yacht racing world.
Join us in Estoril in December for the second edition of the YRDTS and have your say about the future of yacht racing design and technology.
We look forward to welcoming you to the Symposium in December.
