This year’s meeting represents another significant milestone in advancing global cooperation in science, technology, education and innovation in welding and joining technologies. The meeting in Salzburg provides a unique platform for exchanging knowledge and experience, presenting the latest research achievements, and building long-lasting partnerships between academia, industry and training organisations. <\/p>

For the first time, the IIW Annual Assembly is being held in a new format designed to strengthen collaboration and connections between industry and research organisations. Greater emphasis has been placed on practical applications of welding technologies, technical visits and industry roundtable discussions, enabling direct knowledge sharing and exchange of experience among participants from around the world. <\/p>

Education, training, qualification and certification in welding and related technologies continue to be key pillars of IIW’s activities. These areas play a vital role in integrating and strengthening the global welding community while addressing the needs of modern industry and rapidly evolving technologies. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
