The shortage of qualified personnel continues to be a challenge for more than half of entrepreneurs, prompting companies to invest in training;<\/h5>\n\n\n\n
44 percent of companies already collaborate with ITS and universities to develop new skills;<\/h5>\n\n\n\n
Digitization and sustainability at the core of business strategies, supported by the Transition 5.0 Plan and 6.3 billion in incentives.<\/h5>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

The manufacturing industry is the starring in one of the most anticipated events for the sector: MECSPE, the benchmark exhibition for manufacturing, organized by Senaf and running at BolognaFiere from March 5-7, 2025, <\/strong>now in its 23rd edition. With more than 2,100 exhibiting companies, 13 topic-base salons and more than 100,000 square meters of exhibition space<\/strong>, MECSPE is a unique opportunity to explore the latest technological innovations, meet with industry experts and discover new opportunities for growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 2025 edition is distinguished by a strong focus on the ecological and digital transition, <\/strong>while also giving ample space to the issue of the skills <\/strong>needed for its development. Thanks to the Transition 5.0 Plan, which with 6.3 billion euros in incentives pushes the adoption of advanced technologies<\/strong>, MECSPE offers a privileged space to discuss topics as relevant as ever such as artificial intelligence, collaborative robotics, digital twin and additive manufacturing<\/strong>, key tools for improving production efficiency, which are leading to the emergence of new professions that require specific skills<\/strong> that can support the implementation of new technologies and the path of digitization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The issue of training and developing digital skills is, as of today, as crucial as ever, especially considering that one of the main critical issues that Italian manufacturing companies are facing, according to the\u00a0MECSPE Observatory<\/strong>\u00a0presented yesterday at the inaugural conference at the fair, is the\u00a0difficulty in finding human resources (53 percent)<\/strong>[1]<\/strong><\/a>. To make up for the shortage of qualified personnel, more and more companies are relying on\u00a0collaboration with universities and ITS institutes<\/strong>, which offer highly specialized training paths for technical fields and immediate entry into the world of work.\u00a0\u00a0Forty-four percent of companies surveyed<\/strong>\u00a0have already activated partnerships with ITS and universities to introduce qualified young talent, highlighting the importance of synergy between school and industry. However,\u00a031 percent of companies said they have not yet initiated collaborations, although they plan to do so in the coming year.<\/strong>\u00a0This figure confirms the\u00a0central role of<\/strong>\u00a0higher technical education in providing companies with the skills they need to meet market challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another key issue for companies is internal training<\/strong>: 61 percent<\/strong> of companies have already invested in refresher courses for their staff, recognizing the importance of strengthening existing skills<\/strong>. In addition, 21 percent of companies have decided to target young talent through agreements with ITS and universities<\/strong>, while 15 percent plan to organize training courses in the coming months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Compared to last year, there has been a significant increase<\/strong> in the number of companies that consider the skill set of their staff to be in line with business growth needs. At the same time, there is an increase in companies focusing on training and refresher courses as a strategic lever to improve competitiveness and production efficiency. <\/strong>This trend confirms a growing awareness of the importance of continuing education to meet the challenges of the changing marketplace.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

MECSPE\u2019s training initiatives<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For more than two decades, MECSPE has been committed to cultivating the future of the industry along three lines: innovation, sustainability and education. With each edition, the exhibition provides space for educational initiatives and innovative projects created by young talents.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prominent among this year\u2019s initiatives is MECSPE Young & Career<\/strong>, an itinerary created with the aim of offering young visitors-students, new graduates and recent graduates-the opportunity to participate in training appointments organized by exhibitors, get in touch with companies active in the field of guidance and training, and apply for the job opportunities on offer. The initiative will include an interactive area where projects, case histories and guidance and training workshops<\/strong> will be presented. A true hub where job supply and demand meet, creating new ideas and collaborations for the Italian manufacturing world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt is crucial for us to give space to young talents and bring them closer to the world of manufacturing, which is still today the victim of false clich\u00e9s ,\u201d <\/em>says Maruska Sabato, MECSPE project manager<\/strong>. \u201cThat is why every year at MECSPE we promote initiatives in which young people can show their projects directly to companies and broaden their knowledge about the prospects offered by the sector. Work is changing, and we cannot lag behind in terms of digitization and sustainability, aspects that are increasingly central to young people, the real players in tomorrow\u2019s industry<\/em>\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
