As the International Superyacht Society (ISS) gears up to celebrate its 20th Anniversary as the large yacht industry's leading global not-for-profit trade organization, a full calendar of events commemorating the milestone is well underway.

Educational, networking and excellence acknowledgement activities are scheduled throughout the year and are highlighted below.

ISS President, Lance Cushion, comments: "For 20 years, the International Superyacht Society has honed and enhanced its leadership position in the large yacht segment. As the organization moves into its third decade of service to this exacting market, we are excited to be investing in mandates our membership has identified as critical to the industry and to their individual business needs.

'These include the imminent announcement of our new Executive Management team, the continuing refinement of our leadership and design honours, the development of task forces dedicated to industry issues such as crew and berthing, and more. Further, we continue to seek collaborative opportunities with the notable regional organizations that have developed over the years."
