Manufacturing as a service: building the future of European Industry
Working together on the MaaS roadmap for Europe
On the 23rd of October 2025, directly following the EFFRA Manufacturing Days, the Horizon Europe MASTT2040 project will host an interactive session in Brussels. The conference will bring together key stakeholders from across Europe’s manufacturing, research, and policy communities to discuss the future of Manufacturing as a Service (MaaS) in the context of the EU’s green and digital transitions.
About project MASTT2040
MASTT2040 uses strategic foresight to guide decision-making for Europe’s digital and green transition in Manufacturing-as-a-Service (MaaS). In close collaboration with industry and policy stakeholders, the project delivers a roadmap and action plan for the next 5, 10, and 15 years, focusing on digitalisation, circularity, and sustainability. Six expert partners lead the initiative, including Sirris.
For whom?
- EU project partners
- Policy makers
- Companies in the manufacturing industry
- Researchers and tech experts
- Stakeholders in circular economy and digitalisation
Key takeaways
- The event will be an open dialogue on:
- How MaaS can support resilient and circular industrial ecosystems.
- The role of data, digital infrastructure, and AI in next-generation manufacturing.
- Policy and standardisation frameworks needed to accelerate uptake and scale.
- Lessons learned and tools developed within the MASTT2040 project.
- Opportunities for continued collaboration across EU initiatives and industry networks.
