The African Boating Conference is pleased to announce Flexiteek as an official sponsor for ABC 2026, taking place on 20-21 October at the V&A Waterfront in Cape Town.

As Africa's boating, marina and superyacht sectors continue to evolve, innovation, sustainability and advanced marine materials are becoming increasingly important to supporting long-term industry growth.

Globally recognised for its high-performance synthetic marine decking solutions, Flexiteek has built an international reputation for combining durability, aesthetics and sustainability across the leisure marine and superyacht sectors.

Their involvement in the African Boating Conference reflects growing international interest in Africa's marine industry and the opportunities emerging across marina development, manufacturing, refit and marine tourism.

As the continent continues positioning itself more competitively within the global boating industry, partnerships with forward-thinking brands like Flexiteek help support conversations around innovation, sustainability and long-term industry development.

Adam Ramsden, Flexiteek CEO commented: "Africa represents an exciting and evolving market for the global marine industry. The African Boating Conference provides a valuable platform to engage with key stakeholders, understand regional opportunities, and contribute to conversations about innovation and sustainable development. We are pleased to support an initiative that is actively shaping the future of the industry on the continent."

Their participation highlights the growing importance of advanced materials and technology in supporting Africa's marine infrastructure, boatbuilding and refit sectors — particularly as the region looks to position itself competitively on the global stage.

The African Boating Conference continues to serve as a platform for collaboration, knowledge exchange and strategic development, bringing together government stakeholders, investors, marina developers, manufacturers, tourism leaders and operators from across Africa and around the world.

Flexiteek's support of ABC 2026 reinforces the growing momentum behind Africa's marine industry and the increasing role innovation and sustainability will play in shaping its future.
