WEBINAR: Challenges for the European Manufacturing Industry

31/08/2021

👉 Take a break to join our first Industry 4.0 Café to discuss the future of European factories – Register here!

📅 31 August – 12:00 CEST

ABOUT THIS WEBINAR:

A 20% increase in equipment utilisation, a 15% reduction in manufacturing costs…Those are some of the concrete real digital transformation benefits underlined by the manufacturing consulting company Aeva.

However attractive the benefits are, an essential question remains: how do you achieve digital transformation?

The European industrial landscape is made up mostly of SMEs. As a matter of fact, in 2015, enterprises employing fewer than 250 persons represented 99 % of all enterprises in the EU. Do these businesses have the knowledge, the funds, to digitalise their factory and substantially improve their productivity?

ABOUT THE PANEL:

This panel discussion will be hosted by representatives of 5 European manufacturing digitisation initiatives:

– Integradde, whose goal is to implement additive manufacturing for large metal parts,

– DIMOFAC, aiming at reconfiguring assembly lines faster to adapt to mass-customisation production,

– Penelope, developing a novel closed-loop digital pipeline,

– LevelUp, intending to make industrial equipment last longer,

– I4MS, the flagship European initiative to digitalise SMEs in Europe.

SPEAKERS:

  • Maria Roca (Moderator): M.SC in Scientific Culture and Innovation, I4MS Project Manager at FundingBox
  • Cécile Girardot (Speaker): Ph.D. in Materials Sciences, expert in microelectronics, DIMOFAC Project Manager at CEA
  • Ifigeneia Metaxa (Speaker): Chemical Engineer working in multidisciplinary teams , Technical Consultant at ATLANTIS Engineering
  • Felix Vidal (Speaker): M.SC in Industrial Engineering and International Welding Engineer, Penelope Coordinator at AIMEN 
  • Camilo Prieto (Speaker): Senior Researcher on Laser-based manufacturing, Integradde Coordinator at AIMEN
