Event Description

 

The European Commission published on the 5th of May 2021 its updated Industrial Strategy: Building a stronger Single Market for Europe’s Recovery. The Communication recalls the lessons learned from the crisis and lays out the main policy priorities under three main strands, i.e. strengthening Single Market resilience, dealing with Europe’s strategic dependencies and accelerating the twin transitions.

The new strategy has the opportunity to foster the development and adoption of key technologies (e.g. additive manufacturing) in the different industrial ecosystems indicated by the European Commission.

This event will shed the lights on:

• Current industry applications in the most relevant industrial ecosystems 
• Importance of digital inventory and distributed manufacturing
