Palazzo Mezzanotte
Piazza degli Affari, 6 - Milan

Description

This coming October, Milan will become the beating heart of global industrial innovation for two days — the place where the minds currently shaping the manufacturing of tomorrow meet.

The World Manufacturing Forum returns for its 14th edition on 22 and 23 October in the prestigious setting of Palazzo Mezzanotte, with a theme that serves as both a vision and a compass: “Navigating the Future of Manufacturing: Trends Compass & Technology Radars”. This is not merely an event. It is the leading international platform where the academic, manufacturing, and institutional worlds converge to map out the trajectories of tomorrow’s industry — a dialogue that has long anticipated the transformations set to redefine entire production sectors.

Two intensive days, packed with high-level content and networking, bringing together:

  • 400 guest companies — leaders in global industrial innovation
  • 30 international speakers — authoritative voices providing concrete insights into the future of manufacturing
  • 10 production supply chains — a real, cross-sectoral discussion between the industries that drive the global economy

A unique stage where leaders, researchers, policymakers, and innovators from every corner of the globe meet to redesign the future of manufacturing, focusing on sustainability, resilience, and human-centricity. Each edition of the Forum generates connections, partnerships, and ideas that extend well beyond the two days in Milan, consolidating an international network that grows year after year.
