Topic 2027 · The annual focus
SAILING & FOILING
The world’s most advanced innovation laboratory for the marine industry.
The next frontier of marine innovation
Where racing
becomes research.
The 2027 edition of Seatec Revolution Summit is dedicated to Sailing & Foiling, where engineering excellence, advanced materials and breakthrough technologies converge to shape the future of the global marine industry.
Driven by the momentum of the America’s Cup in Italy, the Summit will explore the technologies behind high-performance sailing and the applications they can unlock across the entire marine industry value chain.
America’s Cup · Italy
From the
racecourse
to the industry.
Foiling is not just about speed. It is a concentration of knowledge: aerodynamics, hydrodynamics, composites, simulation, electronics, sensors, control systems and performance engineering.
Seatec Revolution Summit 2027 uses this technological convergence as a lens through which to explore the future of the wider marine sector.
Advanced Materials & Composites
Lightweight structures, stiffness, durability and next-generation materials at the heart of high-performance marine engineering.
Aerodynamics & Hydrodynamics
The science of reducing drag, controlling flow and transforming water and air into performance.
Naval Architecture
New design paradigms, structural concepts and vessel geometries shaped by speed, efficiency and advanced simulation.
Sensors & Digital Simulation
Real-time data, digital twins and predictive modelling connecting physical performance with virtual development.
Artificial Intelligence & Electronics
Intelligent systems, connected platforms and electronic control enabling faster decisions and more efficient operation.
Performance Engineering
The integration of structure, systems, data, dynamics and human input into measurable performance.
Technology transfer
Innovation that
travels.
The technologies developed for high-performance sailing do not remain confined to competition.
They influence design, materials, manufacturing, onboard intelligence, efficiency and sustainability across the wider marine industry.
