The Manufacturing Performance Days (MPD 2025) will take place from the 4th to the 5th of June 2025, in Tampere, Finland. 

The ninth edition of this visionary event will bring together senior executives, technology decision-makers, industry experts, and leading service providers from across the world. In the previous editions—2017, 2019, and 2023—the summit attracted approximately 600–800 participants.

Reflecting the growing relevance of current trends, the focus of MPD 2025 will be on the transformative opportunities AI presents for the manufacturing industry, making the event highly relevant to current industry developments. The Manufacturing Performance Days will feature insights from highly regarded speakers representing the leading industry and academia. Attendees will have the chance to explore new initiatives, discover collaboration opportunities, engage in talent recruitment, and develop skills. There will also be a focus on test-before-invest concepts and an overview of key R&D facilities.

The side event programme, curated by MPD partners, remains a highly anticipated and integral part of the event, offering in-depth insights into the latest trends and innovations shaping the industry.
