The UK has one of the largest marine and maritime sectors in Europe, with the Solent being right at the heart.

Many marine and maritime businesses are based in the New Forest, ranging from shipping, boat building and marine engineering to marine technology and leisure marine.

Our annual briefing for marine and maritime sector businesses from across the Solent region – and those who do business with those businesses – 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.

This is a joint event with Maritime Solent with updates including:

• Tim Meyer, MDL Marinas
• Algie Bennett, Electric Outboard
• Emily Beck, The Build Purser
• Stuart Baker, Maritime Solent

This business briefing is at the Royal Lymington Yacht Club, with plenty of time for networking.

Coffee/Tea is available before the briefing and an informal buffet lunch after the briefing.

Come along to find out what other businesses are doing in 2026!
