La Spezia, May 20, 2026 – The Ferretti Group shined at the Blue Design Summit 2026, a renowned international event celebrating innovation and yacht design, held from May 18 to 20 in La Spezia, right in the heart of the Miglio Blu. At the event, the brands Riva and Ferretti Yachts claimed three top awards from a panel of experts, showcasing their commitment to exceptional design and style that sets them apart in the yacht industry.

Ferretti Yachts 800
The Ferretti Yachts 800, a standout model from the flybridge range, received the “Best Motoryacht under 24 metres” award. This yacht, designed with striking exteriors by Filippo Salvetti and refined interiors by the IdeaeItalia team, perfectly blends timeless elegance with modern design, featuring many attributes usually reserved for larger vessels.

Riva Cento
Additionally, the commercial for Riva Cento, an open yacht launched at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2025, was honoured with the “Best Advertising Video” award. The jury praised the video for its compelling visual storytelling that captures the essence of Riva, turning the yacht into an icon and the launch into a moment of cultural significance.

Riva

Riva also received the esteemed title of “Italian Yacht Ambassador,” acknowledging its pivotal role in defining and promoting Italian yachting elegance globally. From its storied beginnings in 1842 to today’s innovative designs by Officina Italiana Design, the Blue Design Awards 2026 highlighted Riva’s exceptional legacy as a hallmark of craftsmanship and creativity in the yacht world.
