The event is co-organized by Istituto Superiore Mario Boella (ISMB) and by the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Information Technology (FIT).

The Innovation and Networking Days allow Innovators from industry, research and public administrations to meet, share, network and discuss different facets of a broad topic that, in this edition, will be How Information and Communication Technologies can support environmental sustainability of production, products and services.

The event unfolds through two consecutive half-days (from noon to noon) organized around inspirational speeches and technical presentations, informal discussions at World Café and networking opportunities.
