15th IFAC Workshop on Intelligent Manufacturing Systems
The 15th IFAC Workshop on Intelligent Manufacturing Systems will be held in Koszalin, Poland, on September 11-12, 2025. The main focus of the workshop is on methods, techniques, and approaches related to the integration of advanced technologies and artificial intelligence into manufacturing processes. The goal is to enhance efficiency, productivity, flexibility, adaptability, and decision-making in manufacturing operations. The workshop will allow researchers and practitioners to share their achievements, innovations, and insights on intelligent manufacturing systems. Participants can be involved in discussions covering models, approaches, formal solutions, case studies, and real-life implementations. Discussions may be focus on the integration of advanced technologies such as the Internet of Things, edge and cloud computing, machine and deep learning, robotics, automation, data analytics, and advanced manufacturing technologies into manufacturing systems. Consequently, the workshop will encompass the latest research and development in the field, including state-of-the-art technologies and methodologies related to automation, digitalization, and manufacturing.

The European Manufacturing Conference is a biennial event that brings together key players in the European manufacturing industry, including policymakers, industry representatives, as well as academia, research & technology organisations, startups, scaleups and innovators.
The three organisers EFFRA, EIT Manufacturing and ManuFuture share a common vision that cooperation is key in creating an enabling environment to address the most pressing challenges faced by the European industry and society today and tomorrow.
18th IFAC Symposium on Information Control Problems in Manufacturing (INCOM 2024)
The 18th IFAC Symposium on Information Control Problems in Manufacturing (INCOM2024) aims to bring together experts from various fields to discuss the latest advancements and challenges in the context of twin transformation, under the flagship topic of “sustainable transformation towards autonomous manufacturing systems”. The conference will especially address digital twinning and simulation from both design and operation perspectives for sustainable manufacturing and supply chains, green factories and logistic networks, federated manufacturing platforms, virtualization, global manufacturing, autonomous and self-learnable systems, data-driven industrial engineering, Industry 5.0 strategies, models, and technologies, human interaction in robotics and cyber-physical systems as well as new advances in robotics and conversational AI applications in manufacturing and supply chain systems.
Digital Transformation Summit
Mark your calendars — you do not want to miss MDTW2024!
It is in the air — an unmistakable atmosphere of excitement at M4ESTRO! The Digital Transformation Summit is just around the corner, and we will be there! The renowned event is part of the high-level Madeira Digital Transformation Week event being held this year on 24 - 28 June 2024 on Madeira Island, in Portugal. Academic experts, industry leaders, and key policymakers will convene in Madeira to focus their attention on the most promising ways forward for the digital transformation, at both European and regional levels. The Summit sets the scene for a human-centric vision of a digital society. Needs, expectations, developments and innovative solutions will be discussed aiming at digitally empowering citizens and businesses to improve, grow, innovate and compete on fair terms, while achieving climate neutrality.
On 25 June, make sure to hear Gabriella Monteleone from POLIMI at the “𝗗𝗶𝗴𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲 𝗰𝗶𝗿𝗰𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝘂𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗘𝗰𝗼𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺𝘀” workshop introducing our groundbreaking M4ESTRO EU Project. Happening from 11 to 12:30 in Room Lagoon I, the workshop promises enlightening insights on: collaborative business models: from profit-based to circular economy and Manufacturing as a Service; enabling technologies (Digital Twins, Data Spaces, and AI) for collaborative value networks; enabling technologies for Manufacturing as a service (MaaS); governance perspective and certification: Data sharing and data policies, certification; and Digital Product Passport approaches.
We hope to see you there!
