Eni is presenting "Pioneers to Makers", a large interactive and immersive space at Maker Faire Rome - The European Edition, marking 100 years since the birth of Agip. The installation runs from 23 to 25 October 2026 in Eni's spaces at the Gazometro in Rome Ostiense, where the fair is held, and is open to the fair's visitors.

Visitors are guided through a century of industrial history and toward future energy solutions by a route of installations, games, projections, and virtual and augmented reality experiences. The stand draws on Eni's historical archive, which holds more than 6 kilometres of documents, 500,000 images and 5,000 audiovisual items, reworked for the occasion into technology-based, engaging formats.

Eni describes itself as main partner of the fair for the thirteenth consecutive year. Local press reported the stand in operation on the opening day, with visitors queuing at the entrance and wearing VR headsets inside.

Quotes

“Eni confirms itself, for the thirteenth consecutive year, as main partner of “Maker Faire Rome - The European Edition”. A collaboration that is also consolidated through the choice to hold the event in Eni's spaces at the Gazometro in Rome Ostiense, a site of historical and industrial value, today a symbol of transformation and innovation, also thanks to the presence of ROAD – Rome Advanced District. In the year marking 100 years since the birth of Agip, Eni will be present with “Pioneers to Makers”, a large interactive and immersive space dedicated to telling a story marked by the continuous search for new solutions and the ability to look to the energy of the future. Installations, games, projections and virtual reality experiences will accompany visitors on this journey through history, technology and innovation”
