Future Urban Trends, the event that explores the connections between technology, innovation and the city, is back for the third edition. On March 21, 2025, at OGR Tech in Turin, entrepreneurs, startups, companies and investors will meet to discuss emergingtrends in the world of urban tech and foster new business opportunities.
The event, organized by Stratosferica, which tells how new technologies and innovation are changing our cities , will deal with topics such as artificial intelligence, mobility, circular economy and open source construction.
B2B meetings: the heart of the event
One of the key aspects of Future Urban Trends 2025 will be the business matching program, created with the support of the Turin Chamber of Commerce. These B2B meetings will offer local companies the opportunity to interact directly with founders and CEOs of international startups, creating strategic connections and new opportunities for development.
Participants will be able to book 15-minute one-to-one interviews with the guests of the event, present their realities and evaluate possible collaborations. A format that has proven to be successful in previous editions, facilitating the emergence of synergies and innovative projects.
