Join EIT Manufacturing for European Manufacturing Conference in Brussels on 24 and 25 September 2024 alongside key manufacturing players to address the pressing challenges faced by the European industry and society today and tomorrow.
Over 350 participants are expected at Event Lounge to engage with policymakers, industry representatives, as well as academia, RTOs, start-ups, scale-ups, and innovators at the European Manufacturing Conference this year. European Manufacturing Conference is co-organised by EFFRA, EIT Manufacturing, and ManuFuture.
Networking: Meet and connect with key players and stakeholders in the industry.
Expo: Learn more about the latest initiatives and programmes these three manufacturing players are involved in.
Insights: Gain valuable insights into innovative manufacturing technologies and trends through panel sessions, fireside chats, and keynote speeches.
Throughout the conference, the programme will tackle several topics, aiming to meet the needs and interests of the manufacturing ecosystem:
We offer news and event updates, covering all domains and topics of Horizon Europe, Digital Europe & EDF (and occasionally, for ongoing projects, Horizon 2020).

The Miricle project, ‘Mine Risk Clearance for Europe’, obtained funding under the European Defence Industrial Development programme call ‘Underwater control contributing to resilience at sea’. The main objective of the project was to achieve a European and sovereign capacity in future mine warfare and create a path for the next generation ‘made in Europe’ countermeasure solutions. In order to realise this objective, Miricle addressed various stages: studies, design, prototyping and testing. These stages inter alia included the successful testing of an XL Unmanned Underwater Vehicle, a protototyped mine disposal system and multiple innovative systems to detect buried mines. Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), was one of the five Belgian partners in the consortium. Within the project, VLIZ was able to forward its research on the acoustic imaging of the seabed to spatially map and visualize buried structures and objects - in this case buried mines - in the highest possible detail. VLIZ also led the work on ‘Port and Offshore Testing’, building on the expertise of the institute in the field of marine operations and technology.
