Future of running rigging

DSM Dyneema to hold forum at Key West Race Week

As a new Key West Race Week Industry Partner, DSM Dyneema will be holding a new discussion forum during the upcoming Key West Race Week.

Themed as 'The Future of Running Rigging', the event will be held in the Key West Race Week Reception Tent on Wednesday, January 17 from 16.30-18.00 and will bring together an audience of representatives and stakeholders from all aspects of performance yachting from materials, rope manufacturers, riggers, rigging equipment manufacturers, sailors and the yachting media.

The forum will include opinions from the panelists designed to stimulate and encourage open discussion and dialogue with the audience. Specifically, we intend to explore how the future of running rigging - including ingredient materials technology and its utility in yachting - is expected to affect change in components and systems design in the years to come.
