The 2025 edition took place from June 4 to 6 at BolognaFiere, drawing over 73,000 attendees from more than 90 countries. Structured around multiple vertical tracks such as the AI Global Summit, World Startup Fest, Open Innovation Fest, E-commerce Festival, and many others including Creators Fest, eSports and Gaming, Music, Tourism, GovTech, and Digital Job Fair, the event offers a multifaceted platform blending education, business, and entertainment under one roof. At its core, WMF fosters meaningful networking opportunities from B2B matchmaking and investor speed meetings to informal Innovation and Investors Nights, creating fertile ground for collaboration and dealmaking.
The festival’s AI District highlights cutting-edge robotics, prototypes, and AI-powered solutions in a dedicated exhibition zone, allowing businesses to connect directly with a global audience and engage in curated B2B exchanges. Meanwhile, the Startup Competition Final, part of the World Startup Fest, spotlights the most promising entrepreneurial ventures. Finalist teams pitch on the Mainstage before an international panel of investors, incubators, and a live audience, competing to win funding, visibility, and support. WMF's comprehensive and inclusive approach, spanning inspiring talks, networking opportunities, and vertical-themed showcases, makes it a cornerstone event in the global innovation calendar.
