PROGRAM

From Production to Application: THE #P2X CONFERENCE is back! The fourth edition will take place in Frankfurt on 25 and 26 November 2025. It will be focusing on engineering practice: What are the technical challenges in specific projects and how can they be overcome? What lessons can be learned from a project, what mistakes might be avoided and how?

The program will develop dynamically over the next weeks. Find a detailed preview below.
