Tulip to Host Global Advanced Manufacturing Leaders for World Economic Forum Meetings in Boston

April 9, 2025 – BOSTON, MA – Tulip, the leader in frontline operations platforms, will host the World Economic Forum’s Advanced Manufacturing Governor’s Q2 Meeting at its global headquarters in Somerville, Massachusetts, on April 10. The meeting will bring together CEOs, COOs, and senior executives from leading multinational manufacturers to shape the industry’s agenda around artificial intelligence, supply chain resilience, and the future of global operations.

Co-chaired by Tulip CEO and Co-Founder Natan Linder and Rockwell Automation Chairman and CEO Blake Moret, the meeting will focus on two of the most urgent priorities in manufacturing today: the purposeful implementation of AI in operations and the strategic restructuring of supply chains to increase resilience and sustainability.

In parallel, Tulip will also host a meeting of the World Economic Forum’s New Generation of Industry Leaders (NGIL), a global initiative aimed at accelerating the development of emerging leaders in manufacturing and supply chains, on April 9 and 10. Participants in the program will engage in a multi-day learning journey and present capstone projects focused on using frontier technology to drive sustainability outcomes.

These two events are part of a broader World Economic Forum multi-day program taking place across Greater Boston, which includes:

  • The Global Roundtable of Chief Operating, Supply Chain & Procurement Officers, co-chaired by Schneider Electric and Johnson & Johnson, to be held at The Engine. The roundtable will explore the real-world impacts of reshoring and industrial policy amid global volatility, and foster collaboration between business and government leaders.

  • The Centre for Advanced Manufacturing and Supply Chains Q2 Strategy Meeting, hosted at The Engine and MassRobotics, which will convene business leaders, public officials, and academics to refine the Centre’s global agenda for resilience and innovation in the "Intelligent Age."

“Hosting these global conversations in Boston reflects the region’s status as a nexus for industrial innovation and forward-thinking leadership,” said Linder. “We’re proud to open Tulip’s doors to facilitate the kind of collaboration that moves the industry forward.”

The meetings are part of the World Economic Forum’s efforts to convene public and private sector leaders to address global challenges through shared insight and action.
