Please note, preferably register only one person per company for best possible networking.

Industrial laser processing has evolved from a niche manufacturing technology into one of the key enabling pillars of modern advanced manufacturing. Over the past decades, continuous improvements in laser sources, beam delivery systems, optics, motion control, and process monitoring have transformed laser-based processes from specialized solutions into highly reliable, high-throughput industrial tools. Today, lasers are routinely employed for cutting, welding, drilling, marking, surface engineering, additive manufacturing, and micromachining across sectors ranging from automotive and aerospace to electronics, medical devices, and energy. More recently, the convergence of high-brightness laser sources, dynamic beam shaping, ultrafast processing, artificial intelligence, and digital manufacturing has accelerated this evolution, enabling unprecedented levels of precision, flexibility, productivity, and process control.

This meeting will provide a comprehensive overview of the latest developments in industrial laser processing technologies, highlighting recent advances in laser sources, beam shaping, ultrafast processing, process monitoring, automation, and AI-assisted manufacturing. Particular attention will be given to emerging applications across key industrial sectors, including e-mobility and battery manufacturing, semiconductors and advanced packaging, aerospace or data-center infrastructure. By bringing together companies from the whole supply chain, the meeting aims to foster knowledge exchange and identify future opportunities for industrial laser technologies.
