Events related to Industry 4.0 and 5.0 technologies

How can digitalization and AI create new opportunities for industry – and how can we build bridges between large companies, startups and research environments?

During Gothenburg Tech Week, ShiftLabs will participate in a series of activities that highlight our work to strengthen the digital competitiveness of Swedish industry. The focus is on collaboration, innovation and concrete benefits for both small and large players.

Steven Dhondt from TNO will discuss the European Union’s evolving transition from a regulatory to a more interventionist approach to governance, characterised by the European Green Deal and Industry 5.0. This new industrial vision promotes human-centricity, resilience, and sustainability, moving away from the mass production mindset of Industry 4.0.

How do we strengthen digitalization in Swedish industry – and how can collaborations between regions, actors and initiatives take us further together?

During the fall of 2025, ShiftLabs invites you to a series of dissemination activities around the country. On November 6, it is time for MITC in Eskilstuna to host a full day of inspiration, results, future exploration and networking.

As the world's leading highlight trade fair for the industry, the SPS – Smart Production Solutions brings together over 1,000 exhibitors and an international audience from 25 – 27 November 2025 in Nuremberg – focusing on concrete solutions, digital trends and practical innovations.

The way we work is changing due to developments associated with the digital and green transition as well as demographic change, as a driver of current and future labour shortages. As these transitions impact job content, tasks and processes, they will change how people work, the skills needed to carry out jobs, employment conditions, and, ultimately, dimensions of their job quality. This webinar aims to shed light on job holder profiles, their employment conditions, and some aspects of job quality experienced by workers in occupations of relevance for these transitions

Starting with a broad perspective on the role of workers in socio-ecological transformation processes, the webinar will explore recent research results and case study evidence relating both to the relationship between civil society and workers, and to workplace innovation at company level.
