Take a look at the DAME Showcases
This year will be the 30th edition of the DAME Awards. With more than 100 entries, this year’s DAME Awards return to its usual format with entries across seven categories. This 2021 DAME Design Awards will have added focus on the environment and the jury will award a special Environmental Design Winner certificate to a product that represents the best example among all entries that fits the DAME criteria in an impressively sustainable way. Products that the Jury considers to be exceptional, but do not win the award in their category, will be given a Special Mention.
All DAME nominees and winners will be presented at the DAME pavilion in Hall 6. So do not forget to take a look at these innovations and to tune in to METSTRADE TV for interesting insights from the DAME winners.
Visit our specialized pavilions
One of the ways in which the METSTRADE Show raised the bar for maritime exhibitions over the past decade was by introducing ‘shows within a show’ for specific sectors. So do not forget to pay a visit to our pavilions at METSTRADE 2021.
The SuperYacht Pavilion
Are you working in the superyacht industry? Then The SuperYacht Pavilion (SYP) is your go-to pavilion. The Superyacht pavilion in Hall 7 is the central platform dedicated to suppliers of products and services to the luxury yacht market.
Construction Material Pavilion
For innovative yacht builders, naval architects and interior designers, there is the Construction Material Pavilion (CMP) in the Europa Foyer. The Construction Material Pavilion is a comprehensive materials showcase and information resource.
