At this year’s Palma Superyacht Village, IPM IMG Marine Group once again took center stage—showcasing leadership, innovation, and an unwavering commitment to sustainability and the future of the yachting industry.
Positioned at the heart of the Mediterranean’s most strategic yachting hub, the group reaffirmed its stature as a driving force, engaging stakeholders across marinas, refit services, and technical evolution.
A Forum for the Future
As active participants in the Balearic Superyacht Forum, the IPM IMG Marine Group added depth to vital conversations around sustainability, infrastructure, and growth. Two of the group’s top voices shared critical insights:
🔹 Isabel Martínez, Sales Director of IPM Group, spoke in the session “Investing In and Upgrading Marinas”, offering a forward-thinking perspective on how marinas must adapt to meet modern demands.
🔹 Carlos Albons, Production Manager at STP Shipyard Palma, contributed to “Investing in Refit Infrastructure and Business Models”, emphasizing the need for smarter planning and strategic development in the refit sector.
Their participation reinforced the group’s vision: sustainability, collaboration, and excellence in service delivery across every touchpoint of the yachting experience.
