Fifth stop in Bari for Innovation Days 2025: from AI to Green Energy, the future has already begun

Innovation Days 2025 arrives in Puglia with the fifth stage of the Roadshow promoted by Confindustria and Il Sole 24 Ore — an event that brings together businesses, institutions, and local communities to explore the challenges and opportunities linked to digitalization, the green transition, and renewable energy.
The event will take place on Tuesday, October 21, 2025, in Bari, at the Mercure Hotel Villa Romanazzi Carducci, starting at 10:00 a.m.
It will be a day filled with insights, debates, and networking opportunities, organized in collaboration with Sistemi Formativi Confindustria and supported by 4.Manager.
A key participant in the session will be Confindustria Innovation Hub (ConfIN Hub), the National Digital Innovation Center of Confindustria, which supports companies through structured technological transformation programs.
Presenting the opportunities will be Felice Vitulano, Director of MEDIS-DIH, who will introduce the three advanced services offered by the Hub, with up to 100% cost coverage through PNRR funds:
Digital maturity assessment
Cybersecurity evaluation in compliance with the NIS 2 Directive
Support for the digital alignment of the supply chain
Digitalization is now an essential driver of competitiveness for businesses of all sizes. ConfIN Hub’s mission is to make transformation processes accessible and tangible, providing tools and methodologies that guide companies toward sustainable and resilient growth.
The Bari stage will focus on four key themes:
- Artificial Intelligence in production and governance processes
- Energy efficiency for economic and environmental sustainability
- Workforce training and talent development
- Public and private support for companies engaged in digital and green transitions
- Innovation as a driver to reduce the gender gap and promote equal opportunities
The session will be moderated by journalists from Il Sole 24 Ore and enriched by contributions from representatives of the political, institutional, and business worlds.
The morning will conclude with a Business Networking Light Lunch, offering participants, speakers, and partners an opportunity to exchange ideas and build connections.
