OceanWorld Group Partners with Wider Yachts
OceanWorld Group has officially announced a strategic partnership with Wider Luxembourg S.à r.l., marking a significant milestone in the evolution of both companies within the global luxury yachting sector. The collaboration reflects OceanWorld’s ambitious vision to strengthen its international footprint while supporting innovation and growth in the premium yacht industry. Through a capital increase fully subscribed by OceanWorld Group, the investment will provide Wider with additional financial resources to advance its industrial development plans, expand its international market presence, and broaden its luxury yacht portfolio.
This move reinforces Wider’s financial foundation while introducing OceanWorld as a strategic shareholder committed to long-term growth and innovation in the marine industry. Strengthening the Global Luxury Yacht Market The partnership demonstrates OceanWorld Group’s confidence in Wider’s engineering expertise, advanced yacht technology, and strong positioning in the luxury yacht market. Known for combining Italian craftsmanship with cutting-edge innovation, Wider has built a reputation for producing high-performance yachts with hybrid propulsion systems and sustainable engineering solutions.
Lydia Pascarelli, CEO of OceanWorld Group, expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration, emphasizing the company’s commitment to supporting Wider’s continued expansion and establishing the brand as a global benchmark in luxury yachting. Marcello Maggi, board member of Wider Luxembourg S.à r.l., described the partnership as more than a financial agreement, highlighting the shared vision and strategic alignment between both companies. Bridging European Excellence with the GCC Marine Industry The collaboration positions OceanWorld Group as a key bridge between European yacht-building excellence and the rapidly growing GCC marine market. By partnering with one of Europe’s most prestigious yacht manufacturers, OceanWorld strengthens its role in introducing advanced yacht technologies and premium maritime experiences to the Middle East.
The partnership also enhances OceanWorld’s global influence in luxury marine services, yacht distribution, vessel management, and brokerage operations throughout the GCC and international markets. A Growing Relationship Built on Innovation The relationship between OceanWorld and Wider began in 2025 during the Monaco Yacht Show, where the companies introduced the Oceans Yachts brand and unveiled the Oceans 47 model developed in collaboration with Vripack Design Studio. This successful collaboration laid the groundwork for a broader strategic alliance focused on innovation, yacht design excellence, and expanding opportunities within the luxury maritime sector.
