Learning and Growing Together
We started the year by expanding our IDEA Engineering Academy with a brand-new course designed to help engineers master digital yacht management. The feedback has been fantastic—more professionals than ever are embracing smarter workflows and future-ready skills.
Connecting at Global Events
This year, we were proud to attend some of the biggest shows in the superyacht calendar: Palm Beach, Palma, FLIBS, METSTRADE, Monaco and the Superyacht Technology Show. These events gave us the chance to showcase our latest innovations and hear directly from captains, crew, and managers about what matters most.
And because great conversations deserve great company, we hosted our signature Gin & Tonic receptions at METSTRADE and the Monaco Yacht Show. These gatherings have become a highlight for us – bringing together industry friends in a relaxed setting to share ideas (and a few laughs). See you at all these shows and more next year!
Product Innovations That Changed the Game
2025 was all about making yacht management simpler, smarter, and more connected. Here’s what we rolled out:
- Direct Order: Our new feature integrates seamlessly with Versilia and EMS Yachting, making provisioning easier than ever.
- Finance Module: A powerful addition to our platform, giving yachts complete control over budgeting, expense tracking, and reporting.
- CrewBoard App: Crew management on the go—because flexibility matters when you’re at sea.
Advancing Our Core Solutions thanks to your feedback
Both IDEA FLEET and IDEA GT saw major upgrades this year. We focused on improved dashboards, better data integration, and enhanced compliance tools to keep operations running smoothly. These updates make our yacht maintenance software and management solutions more intuitive and powerful than ever.
New Partnership: IDEA + YOT
One of the most exciting developments this year was our partnership with YOT, delivering the perfect hardware to complement our software. This collaboration ensures that IDEA users have a seamless experience—from robust yacht management tools to reliable onboard hardware.
Sharing Knowledge Through Webinars
We didn’t just attend events—we hosted them! Our new webinar series brought together industry experts and IDEA users to share insights, tips, and best practices. It’s been fantastic to see the community engage and learn together.
Looking Ahead to 2026
We’re already working on exciting developments for next year, including more product enhancements, expanded training opportunities, and plenty of chances to connect. Thank you to everyone who joined us on this journey—here’s to an even bigger year ahead!
