Venice Boat Show, 28 May 2026
Arsenale di Venezia, Torre Nuova Conference Room, Venice, Italy
CEST 10:00–12:30 | 2026 Italy–China Sustainable Navigation Workshop:
“Sustainable Navigation & Successful Destinations”

Organised by Assomarinas for the second time at the Venice Boat Show, and held at the Arsenale di Venezia — a UNESCO World Heritage site — this workshop brings together the boating industry, marina operators, regional representatives and technical bodies.

Major opportunities and challenges: The IMO Net-Zero Framework continues to advance, yet implementation mechanisms remain unsettled, and the investment direction for shipping and boating decarbonisation remains unclear. While global shipping faces sustained decarbonisation pressure, green technologies and clean energy are opening up significant opportunities. The boating industry is a critical link in shipping decarbonisation. Italy–China technical exchange will bring mutual benefit to the maritime traditions of both countries.

Agenda focus: The integrated decarbonisation of vessels/boats · ports/marinas · shoreside systems, structured across five interconnected sessions: 01. International and regional decarbonisation policy and emissions reduction progress; 02. Compliance emissions reporting for marine fuels and electricity; 03. Digital-intelligent decarbonisation of passenger and leisure vessels; 04. Digital-intelligent decarbonisation of marinas and shoreside systems; 05. Roundtable: Decarbonisation investment outlook for the boating industry and destinations (2026–2035).

Technical output: Drawing on speaker and panel contributions, the first collaborative Sustainable Navigation Guide (SNGuide) will distil clear, actionable technical references across the five sessions.

Data and AI rules: In the absence of universal AI governance, the workshop is the first to apply a set of data and AI usage and dissemination rules purpose-built for secure and efficient cross-border technical exchange — a transparent, human-centred framework that defines verification levels and credibility boundaries, enabling all parties in Italy–China boating decarbonisation to collaborate with professional trust within clearly defined norms.
