Invitation to industry
After last year’s successful symposium, we invite you to gather again in Belgrade for the 25th anniversary! The CPAG 2024 symposium is an opportunity to meet your friends and business partners in one place and meet new ones, with the possibility of promoting your company, technology, or product. We hope that you will find interest and help in organizing this gathering, as in previous years. If you decide to present and promote yourself at the symposium and thereby participate in the work of the gathering, please contact us.
What will make this symposium different from previous ones is the motivation and promotion of young staff, through their active participation in the work of the gathering. At the next symposium, we would like young engineers and students to present their ideas about innovations in production, new technical solutions, proposals for improving the production process or work organization, and that the best among them be adequately rewarded. In this direction, we would like your support, regarding the prize fund and selection of the best.
