International Conference on Engineering, Technology and Innovation

ICE is the International Conference on Engineering, Technology, and Innovation. It developed from an early focus on the engineering method of concurrent engineering to the general organisation of the engineering process and its organisation within the corporation and in networks. Concurrency obviously addresses the parallelisation of activities in time, but it comes with the broadening of decision-making on what is wanted and how services and products ought to be. This is not decided by technical criteria alone but includes usability, economic, environmental, and social criteria. The ICE conference, therefore, discusses systems engineering as a socio-technical task focusing on the design of products and services and the entrepreneurial innovation process for its adoption in society and economy.

The 30th ICE IEEE/ITMC Conference (ICE 2024) will be hosted by UNINOVA in Madeira Island, Portugal, as part of the Madeira Digital Transformation Week. For this upcoming event, we would like to signal to our growing community of researchers, innovators, industrialists and engineers to share their insights (practitioner, industrial and academic), practices, projects and case studies that address the conference theme:

“Digital Transformation on Engineering, Technology and Innovation”

This is your opportunity to be a part of the transformative MDTWeek 2024.

Don't miss this chance to be at the forefront of the digital revolution!

A lot of discussion has been initiated in policy forums regarding the transition from the traditional linear to a circular economic approach.

This Symposium provides an opportunity for those interested in any level of Circular Economy and Sustainability applications, from individual business or industrial zones to national, international or global policies that will make feasible the effective application of circular economy principles for achieving Sustainable Development. Researchers, practitioners and entrepreneurs are invited to submit both empirical and theoretical papers that are broadly consistent with any of the Symposium’s special topics. An ultimate goal will be to encourage researchers to examine the concepts of circular economy under a holistic scale approach.

A major innovation of this Symposium is the bridging of engineering, management and economic knowledge to support the effective advancement of circular and sustainability principles, bringing together theoretical, practical, applied and managerial knowledge in order to produce efficient policies. The School of Production Engineering and Management of the Technical University of Crete with the Department of Environmental Engineering, together with the Department of Economics and Sustainable Development of Harokopio University of Athens and prominent INFER, will support this interdisciplinary event.

Digital Manufacturing Industrial Summit 2023

The EU is the world’s biggest exporter of manufactured goods and is renowned as a market leader in producing high-quality products. Manufacturing is the backbone of the European economy, providing employment, empowering efficiency, sustainability, and resilience, and innovating new ideas that impact all of us.

Thus, it is essential that Europe retains and supports its manufacturing industry in all areas whilst at the same time empowering the industry to maximise advantage from new concepts, the latest innovations, and cutting-edge research. Industry 4.0, 5.0, and “Made in Europe” are key concepts framing the European manufacturing landscape, but what do they mean in practice, and how are these concepts shaping the present and the future of manufacturing?

The aim of DMIS is to provide a networking conference to answer these questions by linking industry, technology, and research together, exploring the latest interpretations of concepts, and by understanding how others have already benefited.
