This year the Nightingale HQ team will be attending the Conference on Digitalisation of Manufacturing lead by IDEAM Cluster and taking place in the Technological University of the Shannon (TUS) in Limerick, Ireland. The event takes place on 15 – 16 June and will bring together a host of local and international manufacturers, and technology providers from across Ireland and the UK.
Core themes around the lack of SME manufacturers taking up digital, resources, and skills gaps will be discussed over the two-day conference. There will also be a strong EU focus as funding and support for boosting the uptake of digital technologies is increased.
To talk to this key point European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) Manufacturing Director, Dr. Christian Bölling will give a keynote on “Supporting Corporates, SMEs and Startups with Innovation Projects and Funding”. EITM represents 60 leading organisations including some of the industry’s biggest names.
Our CEO Ruth Kearney will join them at the Limerick conference to discuss the Future of Digital Manufacturing and share experiences of working with manufacturers across Ireland and the UK. Ruth will be joined by Dr. Alan McGibney (Nimbus Research Centre), Dr. Pezhman Ghadimi (UCD), Dr Wolfgang Kniejski (EITM) and Amardeep Banerjee (EITM)
As a scaleup members of EIT and have been fortunate to work with the Business Creation and Innovation teams over this past year. We have written before about the value of collaborating with EITM and have benefited from ongoing support and market access, particularly in Germany.
Ruth will also be participating in the Digi Manufacturing cross-border collaboration session supported by the InterTradeIreland and the ‘Meet the Manufacturer’ event.
