In the context of the co-creation of the Horizon Europe Strategic Plan, a public consultation has been launched.

The inputs of this consultation will feed in the ‘Strategic Plan’ for Horizon Europe, which will then guide the work programmes and calls for proposals for Horizon Europe’s first four years (2021-2024). Overall, the consultation will help identify impacts, spark debate and new ideas.

A key event in this co-design process will be the European Research and Innovation Days in Brussels from 24 to 26 September 2019.

You can find more information on the public consultation on this website: https://ec.europa.eu/info/news/have-your-say-future-objectives-eu-funded-research-and-innovation-2019-jun-28_en

The consultation will close on 8 September 2019.

DREAM Summer School "Metal Additive manufacturing for real industrial applications: from the lab to the product" 3-7 June 2019 | Maranello (Italy)

DREAM Summer School aims to show how important international companies use the additive manufacturing technique for the realization of some of their products, guaranteeing optimized performances with respect to normal standards. Participants will then have the opportunity to visit the Ferrari Museum in Maranello and the Enzo Ferrari Museum in Modena to better understand how to use the additive metal printing technology in the automotive sector; they will also visit the laboratories of the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia to see the researchers at work. Moreover, it will be possible to visit the headquarters of R.B. in Mirandola, a company specialized in the design, research and development and manufacture of high precision molds. In addition to the research activity and the results obtained from the DREAM project, ample space will also be dedicated to the presentation of the work carried out by other funded projects in the field of additive manufacturing in the European Research Framework Programme Horizon 2020, with the sponsorship of the Common Dissemination Booster of the European Commission. The Summer School also aims to discuss what are the future trends of the Additive Manufacturing for its widespread adoption in the industrial sector, and also to think about where funding should be allocated in the next decade.

The Summer School is addressed to: • Post-Graduates • Early-stage & Senior researchers • Professionals • Technicians from Industries

Why participating:

- Learn the latest techniques in the Additive Manufacturing field

ManuFUTURE Vision 2030 envisions Future Manufacturing as a key driver for growth and sustainability, by exploiting current trends, challenges and opportunities, influencing the development of all manufacturing sectors. This document is a contribution for political, economic, ecological and social orientation from a European perspective.

The manufacturing sector is of vital importance for Europe to foster economic growth and job creation and has a pivotal role to play in prompting investment and innovation, in particular as a vehicle for the introduction of radical innovations. The ongoing digitalisation of industry and the integration of new technologies are examples of the manufacturing enabling role and the European leading capabilities.
