#mmp symposium
With "Industry 5.0", the EU Commission is making a U-turn in industrial policy: The report presented by the Directorate-General for Research and Innovation on January 7, 2021, calls for sustainable, resilient and, above all, people-centered industrial production. This will have far-reaching consequences - for the use of technology, for future forms of human-machine interaction, for the design of value chains and for the education and training of the required skilled workers.
The MMP Symposium will shed light on the background to the new European strategy, discuss the implications for individual companies, present a wide range of technologies and showcase best practice examples for the future-proof design of the interaction between man, machine and production.
Real event experience at the highest level - thanks to high-performance technology!
