The eCommerce Renaissance in Milan

📍 Milan, Italy · May 11–13, 2026

 
This year’s Mastermind takes place at La Villa Gallarati Scotti, a historic Italian castle surrounded by nature, elegance, and total privacy. 🏰

Just 30 minutes from Milan airport, the venue offers the perfect balance between accessibility and complete focus — away from noise, distractions, and crowds.
