The following speakers are slated to speak:
Join us to explore how smart manufacturing can unlock the agility and resilience the industry needs.
Shaping the Future of Manufacturing
Where manufacturers connect & share insights to advance digital transformation
MX.0 showcases manufaturing excellence in building data-driven productivity and efficiency acorss the plant floor and wider bussines. The event has practical, tried and tested examples of digital transformation for manufacturers of different sizes, at different points in their implementation journey.
As part of two days of presentations, panels, facilitated group and classroom style sessions, plus networking breaks and exhibitor pitches, Fraunhofer USA's Marcel Schaefer will join Peterson Lindo (BMW) to discuss AI in Action on the Shop Floor.
What to expect?
HERE'S A GLIMPSE OF THE KEY TOPICS SHAPING THE AGENDA:

Biomaterials International 2025Dates: 13-17th July 2025 Location: University of Washington, Seattle WA Fraunhofer USA CMI presented:
We successfully developed a scalable, low-cost konjac glucomannan fibers using wet spinning — a textile-inspired method to produce cultivated meat scaffolds. These fibers support both muscle and fat cell differentiation, making it an affordable and scalable technique alternative to bioprinting for cultivated meat.W This project was made possible thanks to our interdisciplinary team at Fraunhofer USA. At Fraunhofer USA, we specialize in cross-sector innovation, combining automation, manufacturing, and life sciences to solve complex problems across industries. From biomedical devices to energy, we apply industrial-scale engineering to accelerate applied R&D and support academic, government, and industry partners. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Fraunhofer USA CMW Open HouseDate: July 16th Location: 1449 Engineering Research Ct, East Lansing, MI 48824 During the open house, visitors were welcomed into our laboratories to explore the technologies and projects that define our work.
