Uberisation is now a phenomenon affecting all sectors of the economy. It is a necessity for each part of our business to ensure its “indispensability" to the chain, to appropriate new tools and products and transform its profession. Thanks to SILMO Next, SILMO Paris is again positioning itself as the standard bearer of the profession, highlighting new opportunities for all players.
For this first year, the Futurology space promotes products and start-ups according to 4 major themes: sport, well-being and health, entertainment and additive manufacturing.
Garmin, McLaren, Matérialise, Everysight, 5th Dimension, LightVision, Microoled, Atol, Cinemizer and more have already confirmed their presence and will present their vision on these new potentials in lectures.
