More than 80,000 professional operators present at the Fiera Milano. This is the outcome of the first edition of the MIBA-Milan International Building Alliance, a format resulting from the synergistic union of GEE-Global Elevator Exhibition, MADE expo, SBE-SMART BUILDING EXPO and SICUREZZA. These four trade fairs all focused on the sustainable and smart evolution of buildings and cities and have proven to be capable of offering an integrated and innovative vision of solutions with which to address the energy transition. The alliance has also emerged as a new international point of reference for all the sectors represented.

The 2023 edition of MADE expo was held against this backdrop, taking place at Rho’s Fiera Milano from 15th to 18th November, with a range of offers focusing on innovation, sustainability, technology, design and living comfort.

Four days and four halls all combined to create a single stage entirely dedicated to topics closely related to the sector and in particular, to the design and construction of sustainable, energy efficient, digital and technologically integrated buildings.

With 701 companies from 29 countries distributed through the two Construction and Building Envelope Halls, MADE expo confirmed itself as the ideal showcase for presenting new processes, systems and materials capable of supporting the world of professionals in the fundamental process of transforming the built environment.

Strategic connections were also made through the extensive calendar of over 100 scheduled, participatory and dynamic events, which proved to be a unique opportunity to update and discuss the future of the industry.

The educational programme delved into the key themes of each show to provide the best up-to-date offering for each target audience. The scheduled conferences, delivered by international consultants and speakers, developed into specific tracks focusing on market trends and prospects, as well as the progress of projects related to the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP).

New life also for the MADE Awards, which, in a dedicated area, rewarded the most innovative companies in the Construction and Building Envelope exhibitions, with a focus on sustainable innovations. The prizes, including a special award for start-ups, were awarded by a technical jury and the thousands of followers who followed the event on social channels.

The synergy between related sectors was successful, offering an integrated and innovative vision of solutions to address the energy and digital transition of buildings and cities.
