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.

Hidden within MIT’s Distinctive Collections, many architectural elements from the earliest days of the Institute’s architecture program still survive as part of the Rotch Art Collection. Among the artworks that conservators salvaged was a set of striking windows of gypsum and stained-glass, dating to the late 18th- to 19th c. Ottoman Empire. This exhibition illuminates the life of these historic windows, tracing their refracted histories from Egypt to MIT, their ongoing conservation, and the cutting-edge research they still prompt.The Maihaugen Gallery (14N-130) is open Monday through Thursday, 10am - 4pm, excluding Institute holidays.
