The theme of this year’s event is “Leading the Charge: Managing the Transition Toward a New Industrial Era”. Changing conditions require decisive action. Through expert presentations by high-ranking representatives from business and society, we will examine – both from a scientific and a practical perspective – which capabilities companies need to successfully lead the way in today’s business environment. You will have the opportunity to engage in discussions with the speakers as well as representatives from leading manufacturing companies and research institutions during apéros and the joint conference dinner.
