Green is the new black - From Smokestacks to Sustainability
The Manufacturing Day is the leading event during ViennaUP'23 to bring together start-ups, key industrial players, investors, and experts in global manufacturing. It celebrates the achievements and potential of the European manufacturing industry. This year's theme, "Green is the new black - From Smokestacks to Sustainability," focuses on the industry's transition towards environmentally-friendly and sustainable manufacturing practices.
The Manufacturing Day aims to showcase the latest innovations and technologies that are driving this transition and to inspire the next generation of manufacturing professionals to take an active role in shaping the future of the industry. The event offers a varied and rich programme for and with start-ups in the manufacturing industry.

Afterwards, she will participate in the panel discussion with the title "Greenovation - Manufacturing the Day after Tomorrow" together with other leading industry experts.
