BI-MUpiù conferences
BI-MU will combine its trade show with an in-depth cultural and thematic analysis, developed through a programme of conferences on specific issues and side events that will host discussions with opinion leaders and presentations of related technologies including those by exhibitors.
A new addition to the 2020 edition will be BI-MUpiùDigital, a demonstration space promoted by Fondazione UCIMU to show the potential of a digital factory, by connecting several machines displayed at different stands, of which it will be possible to observe operation and processing remotely. In addition, a special area dedicated to the Digital Factory will host 10 of the most important players in the IoT world.
The press release stated that this will be the first event for the sector after the forced stop due to the pandemic, which imposed the cancellation or postponement of all exhibitions dedicated to the sector all over the world.
