The Milano Bovisa Campus is situated on the site of the former gasometer in Bovisa, a neighbourhood located north of Milan. The campus has significantly expanded as a result of an international competition announced in 1998 by Politecnico of Milan in collaboration with other local entities such as the Municipality and Region, leading to a general renewal of the area.



The Milano Bovisa campus is divided into two sections, hosting the School of Design and the School of Industrial and Information Engineering, respectively. The Congress will take place at the School of Industrial and Information Engineering, buildings BL27 and BL28, located in Via La Masa, Milan.
