WMF International Roadshow

The WMF's journey toward spreading the culture of innovation, entrepreneurship, and digital transformation becomes global with the WMF International Roadshow.

The work carried out over the years through the sharing of values and knowledge, as well as cooperation among various social actors that form the foundation of the WMF’s activities, has now led to the creation of “satellite” events around the world. This is proof of a strong global drive toward the sustainable and inclusive co-construction of a better future, using innovation and digital tools consciously.

Under the aegis of the WMF, a new global digital cooperation project was launched in September 2021, spanning five continents and involving 29 countries.

Education, business and networking, culture, and education in digital innovation are some of the elements of the local events. Above all, WMF events worldwide will host local Startup Competitions to build an innovative and sustainable entrepreneurial ecosystem on a global scale. They aim to generate a flow of international ideas and projects between Italy and other countries, while also promoting Italian technological excellence in foreign markets.
