IFBSO is delighted to welcome Finnish Marine Industries Federation Finnboat and its Helsinki Boat Afloat Show as a new Platinum member.

The International Federation of Boat Show Organisers (IFBSO) represents the world’s leading boat shows and helps with the development of boat shows and marine trade exhibitions worldwide by establishing best practice standards and providing a forum for the exchange of ideas and development of co-operation between members. 

Finnish Marine Industries Federation Finnboat is the umbrella organisation for Finland's marine industry and trade. Finnboat membership represents close to one hundred percent of both the nation's domestic marine industry turnover and the value of boat exports.

The Helsinki Boat Afloat Show is the largest In-Water Boat Show in Finland and features a comprehensive selection of powerboats from modest dinghies to cruising yachts. 

“We are very pleased that we have been accepted as an IFBSO Platinum member. IFBSO membership gives us the chance to benchmark ourselves with the best boat shows in the world and meeting the IFBSO Code of Excellence proves that we have already done many right things. We have worked very hard over the past four years to grow and develop UIVA FLYTANDE , i.e. Helsinki Boat Afloat show into a unique in-water boat show experience in the Nordics and we look forward to continue the development with the help of our IFBSO colleagues. In order to succeed you have to be among the best in all measures”, says Jarkko Pajusalo, CEO, Finnish Marine Industries Federation Finnboat.
