SUMMARY:We Make Future 2026
DESCRIPTION:WMF\, We Make Future\, one of Europe’s largest international trade fairs and festivals dedicated to artificial intelligence\, technology\, and digital innovation\, opens its 2026 edition from Wednesday\, 24th June to Friday\, 26th June 2026 at BolognaFiere in Bologna\, Italy. \n\n\nThe event’s thematic scope is broad\, including AI\, digital marketing\, cybersecurity\, fintech\, robotics\, geopolitics\, the creator economy\, edtech\, govtech\, and sustainability\, among others. WMF has previously hosted participants and winning startups from across Africa\, including from Egypt\, and has described itself as a platform connecting innovation ecosystems from more than 90 countries. \nAmong the Open Stage tracks confirmed for WMF 2026 is a dedicated Space Economy stage\, one of ten thematic open stages. The inclusion of a space economy track within a generalist technology and innovation fair of WMF’s scale reflects a broader trend: space is increasingly appearing on the agenda of mainstream innovation and digital economy convenings\, not only at specialist industry events. For African space practitioners and organisations interested in the European technology investment and startup ecosystem\, WMF’s programme\, particularly its World Startup Fest and VC and Open Innovation Fest components\, may offer relevant touchpoints. \nWMF 2026 runs from 24 to 26 June 2026 at BolognaFiere\, Viale della Fiera 20\, Bologna\, Italy. Ticket categories: Full Ticket\, Visitor Ticket\, and Fiera Ticket\, determine access to different stage tiers. Further information on registration and the full programme is available at en.wemakefuture.it. \n\nClick here to get real time data and information on every Segments and players in the African space and satellite industry.
