Event overview

Intel is pleased to invite you to the exclusive Intel's Industrial AI Automation Technical Session. This invitation-only forum brings together a select group of manufacturing and industrial technology leaders. Together, we'll look at where industrial AI, intelligent edge architectures and the technologies reshaping manufacturing are headed. You'll hear from peers, see real-world deployments and connect with decision-makers from across the industrial ecosystem before the show begins. At the forum, you will:

  • Hear how Kontron, OnLogic, and Capgemini are using the latest technology to speed up industrial transformation.
  • Join leaders from Intel Foundry and Intel Robotics for a panel on the convergence of Operational Technology and Information Technology, and what it means for manufacturing competitiveness.
  • See how industry leaders are using industrial AI and edge computing to improve productivity, resilience and competitive advantage.
  • Connect with fellow executives, customers and partners before SPS 2026 begins.

The afternoon opens with a welcome reception, followed by the executive program. It closes with a networking reception for informal conversation with peers.

We look forward to welcoming you to Nuremberg and sharing perspectives on the future of industrial innovation.
