Welcome to a day full of inspiring presentations of the absolute front-end research in Virtual Engineering. We’ll bring you into the future of production systems where sustainability, human-centeredness and resilience are in the focus. You can rest assured you will leave this event filled with many new thoughts and ideas.
When and where
Date and time: September 20th at 9:30 - 15:00
