The Future Cleantech Festival on June 17-18, 2026 will take participants into the heart of Europe’s industrial landscape, where the challenges and opportunities of decarbonization are most visible. Unlike any other event, the festival blends rigorous research with direct, on-site experiences in heavy industry, machine rooms, and utilities. Through immersive tours, live demonstrations, and tech- and policy-driven discussions, the festival creates a unique platform to test ideas against reality. By entering control rooms, standing next to forging ovens, and exploring structural innovations, participants will gain a rare, hands-on understanding of the innovation gaps ahead and of the solutions already within reach.
