27-28 February 2018 | Berlin, Canadian Embassy

The Canada-Germany Industry 4.0 Partnering Event will be a managed partnering event where Canadian delegate profiles will be developed, compiled and shared in advance with German partners in order to recruit German delegates for the event.

The event will begin with Canadian and German presentations on programmes to support collaborative international industrial R&D projects, presentations from German guests on the breadth of German advanced manufacturing capabilities, and continue with individual presentations by Canadian and German delegates on their capabilities, collaborative project ideas and partnership needs.
