International Hardware Fair Italy returns in 2025 22 January 2025

International Hardware Fair Italy returns in 2025 with a packed programme of events focusing on important issues and the most interesting opportunities in the Italian and European hardware market.

Taking place from 8th – 9th May 2025, more than 250 exhibitors have already confirmed their participation in Bergamo for two days of conferences and matchmaking. 

Alice Brambilla, project manager for International Hardware Fair Italy, comments: “The participation of major Italian and international companies confirms that the event responds to a need for profitable in-person networking, in a streamlined two day format packed with initiatives and proposals for the market. The next edition will interpret crucial issues in the industry, offering a broad overview of possible solutions.”

The International Hardware Fair Italy will have a comprehensive programme for buyers from all over Europe, as well as an outdoor area for exhibiting tools and machinery. Key themes for the 2025 fair include service, the evolution of formats and sustainability.

“While home improvement, like all industries, has felt the effects of the digital and climate transition, it still continues to be a sector of great interest for the development of retail chains, eCommerce projects and diversification of products and proposals. In this context, the International Hardware Fair Italy committee is working on the completion of a conference programme offering plenty of food for thought and in-depth analysis to guide its strategies and promote its growth,” concludes organisers.
