International C-suite Forum MIND-tech 4 Sustainable Future is an opportunity for discussion and interaction with top management of large companies, but also start-ups and mid-caps with very high potential for innovation and growth and high-level research and training centers, with the aim to explore the pillars and enablers of international best practices to promote interdisciplinary and cross-sectoral innovation, covering all enabling technological areas (big data, AI&ML, AR&VR, new materials including biomaterials and nanomaterials, microelectronics, HPC and QC, etc.).
Innovation and sustainability are the keywords that characterize MIND - Milano Innovation District - a public-private partnership Lendlease and Arexpo - that has the task of enhancing and developing the entire Expo 2015 site - that will create an innovation district where the new frontiers of technology and bioscience will converge.
The initiative is part of the 50 MIND-tech 4 Sustainable Future research project carried out by SDA Bocconi School of Management for Lendlease, which investigates the phenomenon of innovation through the analysis of business models, identification of drivers of change, and the study of the metamorphosis of organizations and people management.
The results of the debate will constitute the International C-Suite Forum 50 MIND-tech 4 Sustainable Future Report that will be made available to the companies participating in the project. On October 13, 2023, a round table discussion is scheduled to further discuss the key findings with opportunities to discover Milan in its artistic and scientific excellence and the MIND project through a series of events and guided tours.
Participation is free upon online registration.
