BE 5.0 Industries du Futur Mulhouse

BE 5.0 – Industries du Futur is an annual trade fair that has established itself as a forward-looking platform for industrial transformation. It is organized by Parc Expo Mulhouse, a major exhibition center in eastern France, located at the heart of the tri-border region of Germany, France, and Switzerland. Its central location and excellent transport connections make it an ideal venue for international industry professionals.

The event targets a specialized audience, including manufacturing companies, start-ups, research institutions, technology developers, and decision-makers. At its core is the fundamental transformation of industrial production through cutting-edge technologies. BE 5.0 is clearly guided by the principles of digitalization, sustainability, and innovation, offering practical impulses for the ongoing evolution of industry.

The fair's central theme is Industry 5.0, which redefines the interaction between humans and machines. Topics such as collaborative robotics, augmented and virtual reality in production environments, and human-centric manufacturing illustrate how technological advancement is combined with human expertise. The focus is further expanded to include digitalization and artificial intelligence – with applications such as smart factories, the Internet of Things, digital twins, and predictive maintenance – providing concrete solutions to enhance efficiency, flexibility, and competitiveness.

At the same time, the fair serves as a driving force for sustainable industrial development. Areas such as energy efficiency, decarbonization, green manufacturing, and resilient supply chains highlight its commitment to supporting the ecological transformation of industry.

Another key focus is additive manufacturing, particularly 3D printing, alongside advanced high-performance materials and lightweight design concepts that are reshaping the production landscape. Complementary topics include industrial cybersecurity (OT security), risk management in connected systems, and the training of skilled workers for the digital workplace. This thematic diversity positions BE 5.0 as a highly targeted interface between high-tech innovation, industrial application, and strategic future planning.

Exhibitors represent sectors such as mechanical engineering, automation, software development, materials science, energy, and logistics. Attendees primarily include professionals from industrial production, engineering, R&D, as well as representatives from public institutions and economic development agencies. High-caliber expert talks, innovation forums, and technology showcases round out the program with substantive depth.

Parc Expo Mulhouse is easily accessible by car and train. Located close to both the German and Swiss borders, it offers modern infrastructure and an ideal setting for high-quality B2B networking and technological collaboration.

Anyone looking to play an active role in shaping industrial change will find in BE 5.0 an outstanding platform for innovation, partnership, and sustainable growth.

The ninth BE 5.0 Industries du Futur takes place on 2 days from Tue., 25.11.2025 to Wed., 26.11.2025 in Mulhouse.
