New manufacturing technologies and processes are revolutionising companies’ business strategies and internal way of working and growing. This year we are organising the 3rd edition of the smart manufacturing event, which will be digital and address all manufacturing sectors. The event was organised for the first time by Luxinnovation 2 years ago. The first edition was managed by the Wood Cluster together with the Materials & Manufacturing Cluster with the objective of stimulating the digitalisation of small companies in the wood sector. Last year, a larger event targeting all industrials sectors and skilled craft companies presented Luxembourg’s national strategy for data-driven innovation and launched the Digital Innovation Hub. This annual meeting is focused on new technologies and processes. Representatives of the manufacturing industry go on stage to share their experience in digital transformation, smart processes and sustainability strategies in order to meet tomorrow’s challenges
The manufacturing industry needs to be transformed and modernised in order to be able to face the economic and health crisis that impacts it deeply. In order to rise to the challenges of tomorrow and remain competitive, companies need to be modernised, develop new strategies, target new sectors, enhance their productivity and efficiency, rethink and optimise their value chains and make their supply chains more reliable.
The 3rd edition of the Smart Manufacturing event will address the following topics, technologies and processes:
· Value and supply chains
· Sustainability
· Businesses and strategy
Why participate?
Participants will obtain information on EU trends in terms of digitalisation and sustainability and get a deeper understanding of how the manufacturing industry needs to be transformed to be able to embrace future technological and environmental challenges. The event is also an opportunity to get to know Luxembourg companies that have implemented smart processes internally and to establish contacts with services providers via the matchmaking platform.

Smart tools and technologies are essential to simplify the everyday life of manufacturing companies. This webinar will show how they can be used to optimise the tracking and tracing of products and enhance supply chains and why they are a must to answer today’s challenges of matching supply and demand. The session will also showcase how the development of local value chains can be a competitive asset to overcome the current economic and health crisis.
Smart bottle cap specialist Guala Closure will discuss the role of smart packaging and the Internet of Things (IoT) in the wine and spirits value chain and highlight how IoT solutions can facilitate supply chain management through tracking and tracing, authentication and certification, and information about consumer engagement.
Medical equipment company B Medical Systems will present its new strategy for increasing the flexibility of its supply chain, which has been put to the test during the COVID-19 crisis, by implementing smart tools and systems as well as by changing some supply chain paradigms.
Champ Cargo Systems and Vallair will speak about how they are digitalising air cargo processes in order to maximise their local value chains and provide new capabilities for a post-crisis global trade recovery.
