Why Attend
For a CIO or CTO running operations in Italy or across the Mediterranean, this is where the Italian government is putting its AI and industrial-digitisation agenda on one stage: two ministries, the Lazio Region and 150+ policymakers alongside vendors. It is useful for understanding how PNRR AI funding and EU AI Act enforcement will land in Italy, sourcing sovereign compute and data-centre capacity, scouting smart-manufacturing and quantum-safe suppliers, and meeting Italian startups through North Star Italy. Being two days in Rome, it is a light travel commitment for a European team.
Event Features
- ✓GITEX Super ComputeX (data centres and sovereign compute)
- ✓GITEX New EnergyX (power, grid and clean tech)
- ✓GQX (quantum and frontier tech)
- ✓GISEC (cybersecurity)
- ✓LivX (life sciences and health)
- ✓North Star Italy (startups and venture capital)
What Makes This Unique
- ★Designated the official national tech and AI event of the Government of Italy, backed by two ministries and the Lazio Region — unusually direct access to Italian industrial-policy makers
- ★Positioned as a Mediterranean hub (organisers cite a 530-million-person market) rather than another pan-European AI show
- ★Strong industrial and dual-use tilt — smart manufacturing, aerospace, quantum-safe infrastructure — reflecting Italy's manufacturing base and its PNRR AI investment
- ★Inaugural edition: attendance figures are organiser projections, and GITEX shows are expo-led rather than research-deep
