Technology, design and sustainability: MICS connects businesses, research and local communities to drive change

MICS is the driver guiding the evolution of the manufacturing industry toward a new production paradigm: more circular, more traceable, more sustainable.

We support those who innovate, design and manufacture in Italy, enhancing know-how and reducing environmental impact — from fashion to furniture, from automation to the entire manufacturing system.
