Intelligent Industry 26

  • Intelligent Industry

Gofore’s annual event Intelligent Industry brings together leaders, decision-makers and innovators from across the industrial sector. This year we invite you to explore one of today’s most pressing themes: courage.

What makes an industrial organisation courageous? What does courage look like in modern industrial operations? How can organisations cultivate courage if it’s not in line with accelerating market and customer demands?

Gofore’s annual customer and stakeholder event Intelligent Industry 26 offers fresh perspectives, ambitious ideas and practical insights for leaders looking to drive renewal and resilience.

This year’s theme of courage stems from an industrial study conducted by Gofore in 2025. The study compiling the views of over 30 industry C-level leaders revealed a notion that avoiding risks poses a major threat to Finland’s competitiveness. Also, over half of the respondents believe that the lack our courage forms a barrier to growth in a challenging and volatile market and geopolitical environment.
