Marmomacc 2021
Intended for all architects and companies constantly looking for training opportunities, the course programme Marmomac Academy is entirely dedicated to innovation in the application of natural stone in architecture, construction and industrial design.
For this Marmomac 2021 edition and for celebrating the return in presence of professionals of the stone sector, the Marmomac Talks Areas of the pavilion 2, 7 and 12 have been created to host some of the events. The program is focused on technical and environmental issues, on design and architecture solutions, on quarrying techniques, on start-up creations and on online sales.
The 2021 edition (29 September-2 October) focuses on the appointment with Marmomac Talks, the physical
extension of the virtual meetings seen last May on the Marmomac Plus platform

To ensure a comprehensive training program in compliance with the new safety standards imposed
by the Covid emergency, Marmomac Talks will take place in three areas set up in strategic points in
Halls 2, 7 and 12. This will allow everyone attending the trade fair in person the chance to move
around easily and take part without causing crowds.
Each Marmomac Talks area will be equipped with LED walls and socially distanced seats and will
also be connected in streaming to the other areas to ensure live viewing of the various events
organized during the trade fair.
People unable to take part in the event in person will still be able to watch these events available
through the Events section of the new Marmomac Plus portal - a digital tool created early in 2021
precisely to keep professionals all over the world in touch with participants and initiatives at the
September show attended in person.
Scheduled appointments especially include those with the curators and designers of exhibitions
such as The Italian Stone Theatre - Time in Stone, the experimental projects developed by university
students as part of the Young Stone Project, the Pinnacle Award ceremony and the presentation of
the new Natural Stone Pavilion.
An absolute innovation within the scope of Marmomac Talks is Marmo+Tech, the stage for technologies: a space for dissemination and comparison where technology companies will speak toan audience of technicians, plant managers and product developers to share case histories and best
practices - as well as to outline technical innovations at the service of stone processing companies.
Marmomac Talks is in turn flanked once again this year by training events for selected buyers as part of the incoming project created in collaboration with ICE Trade Agency and Confindustria
Marmomacchine.
Lastly, another forum area planned for the 55th Marmomac will be set up inside the Verona Stone District - a space specifically for companies in the Verona area district
