CIOCoverage is an official Media Partner with Smart Factories Summit Europe 2026 starting from October 6th 2026.

European manufacturing is at a critical turning point. Cost pressures, supply‑chain uncertainty and skills shortages are accelerating the need for smarter, more resilient factory models.

As AI, intelligent automation, and digital twins move beyond pilots, the focus shifts to scaling. Lighthouse factories are showing how governed AI and real-time optimisation drive productivity and competitiveness, while secure IIoT foundations remain essential to operational continuity.

Success ultimately depends on people, with digital upskilling and effective human‑machine collaboration becoming critical to operating the smart factory efficiently.

Join smart factory leaders in London to address these challenges head‑on, and understand how leading strategies across automation, security, skills and sustainability are shaping future‑ready Industry 4.0 operations.
