Manufacturing is central to the future well-being of national economies and, in turn, the global economy. Yet, in the face of extreme changes in geopolitical views, technologies, industrial practices, workforce roles and expectations, trade policies, and government and financial institutions, manufacturing firms face unprecedented challenges. These challenges are especially important in the EU given the rise of economic nationalism and corresponding national industrial strategies. How must we remake manufacturing to secure future national and global prosperity?We invite you to join us at the 2025 MIT Europe Conference, one of the most forward-thinking business events in Europe, where MIT faculty members will engage with decision-makers, entrepreneurs, executives, and startups in a conversation about the future.
