Meet, collaborate, and create impact!

The need for substantial collaboration and disruptive action has never been larger. Leading Lights 2024 is the forum for professionals who are making a difference in furthering the green transition. By bringing together key stakeholders the event will facilitate new connections, foster innovative collaborations, and be the foundation for meaningful impact within manufacturing. Join the disruptive movement towards sustainable manufacturing innovation from the North to the rest of Europe. 

This year’s event will take place at Tom Tits Experiment during Science Week in Södertälje. Within this inspirational backdrop, we will have fun and engaging activities to enable matchmaking and co-creation with our ecosystem including leading startups, research institutions, universities, industrial partners, accelerators, and investors. The inspirational speakers and workshop sessions will be followed by an additional opportunity to connect over dinner. 

The theme for Leading Lights 2024 is Industrial challenges in sustainable manufacturing, which will be addressed through reverse pitches and keynote speeches on sustainability from leading industrial players. Moreover, this will be the perfect opportunity to make key connections ahead of the coming Call for Proposals at EIT Manufacturing.
