“I deeply believe in innovation. It is what fuels everything.” These are the words of Stassi Anastassov, the new Global CEO of Ferretti Group, in one of his very first interviews after taking leadership of one of the most influential groups in the global yachting industry. And we at The Boat Show were among the very first media outlets to sit down with him. In this conversation, Anastassov does not simply talk about yachts. He talks about vision, structure, innovation and long-term value. About the importance of protecting creativity and passion while building the invisible foundations that allow a company to grow, evolve and remain relevant for decades. Because behind every iconic brand there must be something deeper than design, products or success. There must be processes. There must be organization. There must be a structure strong enough to support the future. Like the foundations of a house. Like the unseen mass of an iceberg beneath the surface. A powerful perspective from a leader now called to guide the future of one of the most iconic names in international yachting. #FerrettiGroup #StassiAnastassov #TheBoatShow #YachtingIndustry #LuxuryYachts
