Extensive lecture program
The organizer of SPS Connect, Mesago Messe Frankfurt, has put together an extensive lecture program on three stages - Main Stage, Technology Stage, Product Stage. The focus is on current topics that move the automation industry - from cyber security, production IT, robotics, functional safety, motion, DC infrastructure and AI to intelligent operating concepts, sensor technology, Industry 4.0, digital twins and industrial communication. All of these topics will be explored in greater depth during the interactive event in keynote sessions, expert presentations, discussion panels and contributions from exhibitors.
A stage for professional exchange
Artificial intelligence will not only be discussed at SPS Connect, but also demonstrated in practical application as part of the AI-supported matchmaking function. The platform is designed to bring exhibitors and participants together based on their profile data, user behavior and the information they themselves provide about their offerings or requirements.
