The International Conference on Industry 4.0 and Smart Manufacturing (ISM) is a yearly open forum fostering the smart culture and exploring the transformative impact of digital technologies characterizing the 4th industrial revolution across the full breadth of economic sectors.

The manufacturing community is leading a series of world-class breakthroughs driven by the convergence of physical and digital spaces, operational excellence and human-automation symbiosis that are intimately changing the profile and behavior of socio-technical ecosystems at all levels of public and private sectors.

To support this transition, ISM promotes the cross-fertilization of multidisciplinary knowledge bringing together a global community of eminent academics, research innovators, professionals, leaders and policy makers committed to build more efficient, agile, safe, sustainable and ethical systems; encourages the dissemination of the latest scientific advances, research results and industrial stories to strengthen the theoretical base of Industry 4.0; and provides a stimulating ground for business-to-science cooperation opportunities.
