Largest sailing, networking & business event in the BeNeLux.

The Captains Business week is a 6-day B2B event revolving around sailing, networking, content and outstanding catering. Originated in its current form in 2005, it has grown into a huge event. Companies gather for a day at sea led by an experienced skipper. They can network with their guests and other companies while enjoying food and drinks. Each edition covers a different topic, where each day highlights a theme within that topic. The plenary room carries out all the knowledge to the participants. The unique location completes it all.

About The Captains of Industry Business week

The Captains Week consists of six days, four of which focus on an overarching theme. In 2023, this theme is Circular Economy. With each day focusing on a different topic within this theme, there is something for everyone. With topics such as ESG, Smart Cities, Innovation, Climate, Digitalisation, we provide a wide range of great content by professional speakers. On the last 2 days, we make the venue available to partners who want to organise their own event. Here, we work with the partner to create a tailor-made event for their invitees.

So if you wish to thank your clients, prospects or business relations for the good cooperation, or learn something from our content sessions, the Captains of Industry is an exclusive and unforgettable event which will be talked about for a long time and which can only enhance your customer relations.

Together with our golden partners

Flying boats?

We welcome The Green Wave to the Captains again and this year you will see them sailing, or rather flying, through the channel of Nieuwpoort. With their electric boats they float above the water. A spectacular sight that you can experience for yourself at the captainsofindustry event.

Dada Chapel

Dada Chapel is a distillery housed in a beautiful historical building in Ghent's old city center. You'll be able to taste their drinks at this year's event!

Alcoholvrij.be

Alcoholvrij.be One of our regular partners is Alcoholvrij.be, which provided the much-appreciated alcohol-free offerings during the Captains. Davy, Tim and Cedric founded Alcoholvrij.be in 2020. Meanwhile, the start-up has a fine range of alcohol-free drinks: (sparkling) wines, beers, spirits and cocktails. All drinks are available online via the webshop where you can also purchase nice tasting packs
