Conference Venue
The 11th GCSM will take place at the Production Technology Centre (PTZ) in Berlin. The center combines the competencies of both the Institute for Machine Tools and Factory Management of TU Berlin IWF as well as the Fraunhofer-Institute for Production Systems and Design Technology IPK. The Production Technology Centre is located in the heart of the old Berlin industrial area at the Charlottenburg embankment of the river Spree. The PTZ offers comprehensive and application oriented system solutions covering Virtual Product Creation, Production, Assembly and Automation Technology as well as Corporate Management. In order to solve the 21st century's major sustainability challenges, the Institutes' activities are progressively expanding into relevant emerging areas, e.g. renewable energy supply, resource cycle oriented technology and circular economy. Those efforts sum up in the Collaborative Research Centre "Sustainable Manufacturing – Shaping Global Value Creation", supported by the German Research Foundation (DFG).
