Superyacht Summit Türkiye 2026 Announces First Lineup of Confirmed Speakers
Yachtall is proud to once again be the official media partner of Superyacht Summit Türkiye 2026. As preparations continue for the fourth edition of the event in Istanbul on 4–5 November, the summit has announced its first confirmed speakers, bringing together leading voices from across the global superyacht industry.
Rather than looking back at past market trends, this year's programme has been designed around the issues currently shaping the global superyacht industry. Discussions will examine what 2026 has revealed about yacht demand, pricing, buyer confidence and shipyard capacity, while also exploring the growing complexity of new-build projects, brokerage, technical advisory services and the evolving role of family offices in yacht ownership.
The agenda will also address broader forces influencing the sector, including global wealth migration, changing owner expectations, artificial intelligence, technological innovation, luxury brand strategy, Mediterranean cruising dynamics and the long-term commercial value of yacht design.
Among the newly confirmed speakers are Alain Auvare, Sales Broker at Fraser Yachts; Andrea Armas, Yacht Surveyor, Owner's Technical Representative and Project Manager at Specialist Marine; Cana Gökhan, Co-Founder of Red Yacht Design; Devrim Gündoğan, Project Manager at RMK Yachts; Enes Yılmazer, luxury real estate and lifestyle content creator; Ertuğ Yaşar, Managing Director of Dunya Yachts; renowned yacht designer Luca Dini, Founder of Luca Dini Design; Özger Sarıkaya, Design Office Manager at Ulutaş Yacht Interior; and Samuel Bolton, International Managing Director of Quintessentially.
The newly announced participants strengthen a programme that aims to encourage open discussion between international industry leaders, decision-makers and market specialists. Organisers say the sessions are intended to challenge conventional thinking while providing practical insights into the opportunities and challenges facing the superyacht market over the coming years.
As Superyacht Summit Türkiye continues to expand its speaker roster, the event is positioning itself as one of the Mediterranean region's key industry forums, bringing together professionals from across the global superyacht ecosystem to discuss the trends shaping the market's future.
