Wired Next Fest 2024

We are pleased to invite you to the

Wired Next Fest 2024

Saturday, June 15, and Sunday, June 16, 2024 Sforza Castle Piazza Castello – Milan

The Wired Next Fest is an internationally renowned event aimed at raising public awareness and celebrating innovation, sharing, and excellence as key elements for the economic, cultural, and social growth and development of our country.

This year’s novelty is that the Politecnico di Milano will be the Scientific Partner, with a particular focus on AI.

As part of this collaboration, the University has agreed with Wired on a rich series of initiatives, including a series of talks featuring a selection of the University’s professors on the main stages.

There will also be a large stand dedicated to the Politecnico di Milano, showcasing some of our research projects and a series of presentations within the stand to explain them. These range from 3D printers to viewers for observing space debris capture, from space design objects to mock-ups of satellites for in-orbit inspection. There will also be prototypes of race cars and motorcycles built by students, robotic cardiac surgeons, experimental rockets ready for launch, and the autonomous driving car experience directly from the Mille Miglia.
