The green and digital transformation, the twin transition, has its roots in the megatrend of increasing automation and use of autonomous systems executed not only because of productivity increase but also to make our economies fossil-free. The climate change and volatile energy markets have made the sustainable growth and green investments even more important to the manufacturing sector. The future challenges and opportunities for manufacturers rely on automatization, electrification, batteries, circular economy, and the second life of goods.

MPD2023 will offer views of top class invited speakers from leading industry and academia on latest trends and achievements in industry digitalization, business leadership and the future of work in the forthcoming frontiers of sustainable and resilient industry.
