Firstly: HAPPY NEWYEAR! Secondly: announcing our first event of 2022
We welcome all YoungShip members to our first LIVE event of the year! We start small en as we all haven't seen each other in a long time, we will give ample opportunity to chat away at our next afterwork drink in Bar Du Port in Antwerp. For more info and registrations, check the eventspage on our website and we hope to see you there!
Scheepsbouwer Damen had een stevige uitdaging in petto voor de leden van YoungShip: een aanbesteding en pitch voorbereiden voor de bouw van een fregat. Normaal duurt dat maanden, nu moet het in twee uur.
On the 15th of September Youngship Belgium participated in the famous Antwerp Dragonboat race. It was a wonderful day filled with happiness, friendship, maritime professionals and of course a lot of sport activities. We ended as 12th out of the 32 teams who participated. A promising result for the edition of 2019! We'd also like to thank once more our event sponsor EURONAV for supporting us with the organisation of this event.
The first YoungShip event in Belgium was a success! More than 30 people joined the event. We learned a lot and finally we got to meet each other while we had a good laugh. We hope to see all of you back during our next event on the 15th of September in Antwerp where we will participate as a team in the famous Antwerp dragon boat race!
