Officine d’Intelligenza, is the 1st National Forum conceived to address the transformative impact of Artificial Intelligence on industrial and productive systems within a structured, public and high-level setting. The Forum is promoted by Istituto Italiano di Intelligenza Artificiale (AI4I), OGR Torino and Fondazione CRT.

It is designed as an institutional space for strategic reflection on the role of Artificial Intelligence in reshaping industrial value chains, production models, work organisation, corporate governance and public policy frameworks.

The Forum provides a shared arena for the discussion of strategic orientations, policy choices and concrete industrial applications of Artificial Intelligence, with the objective of aligning technological development with industrial capacity, infrastructure, skills and investment. Officine d’Intelligenza will also host the first public presentation of the AI4I Strategic Plan 2026–2030.

Officine d’Intelligenza convenes national and local institutions, industry leaders, the scientific and academic communities and representatives of the financial sector to examine the conditions under which Artificial Intelligence can be adopted effectively and responsibly within industrial processes, contributing to the long-term competitiveness of the Italian and European productive system.

The programme will be articulated around plenary sessions and thematic round tables dedicated to the strategic, technological and organisational dimensions of Artificial Intelligence applied to industry.

The event will take place exclusively in person. Attendance is subject to accreditation and limited capacity.
