GCC Countries
GCC countries aim to become a global sustainability hub with key objectives: fostering a competitive knowledge economy, promoting social development, ensuring environmental sustainability, advancing clean energy, and encouraging a green lifestyle. A major goal is achieving carbon neutrality by 2050.
With rapid economic growth, increased purchasing power, access to cutting-edge technologies, and a focus on environmental awareness, GCC countries aim to emerge in the global yachting industry. They are committing pushing boundaries with its pioneering mixed-use developments. A significant marinas projects are underway and today the marinas are built on one side and the yachts on the other: they must be treated like a resort with an infrastructure including a significant eco-friendly component. For this to happen, a real “collective thought” is needed.
