Industry 5.0 innovation and technological transition as well as industrial upgrading is the theme of the programme of Széchenyi István University, which is organised within the framework of the Smart Manufacturing Festival, a tradition-creating event on the campus of the University of Győr and in the former biscuit factory, the Győr Innovation Park. On 6 March, visitors will be able to take a look at the world of digitalisation innovations through exciting presentations and lab visits.
SmartManFest is a series of events organised by the National Technology Platform Association for Industry 4.0 (NTPSZ), in which large Hungarian industrial companies, SMEs, higher education institutions and research centres open their doors to the public and provide an insight into the fascinating world of industrial digitalisation.
Between 26 February and 8 March, there will be nearly 50 different programmes at more than 30 venues.
During the programme, visitors interested in technological innovations and industrial digitalisation solutions will be able to learn about the operations of modern companies engaged in smart manufacturing, as well as the developments of leading higher education institutions.
