Advanced Factories 2025: innovation and design come together in Industry 4.0

From April 8 to 10, 2025, Barcelona will once again host one of the most important events for the tech industry: Advanced Factories. If automation, artificial intelligence, or simply understanding why everyone is talking about “Industry 4.0” is your thing, this is the place to be. And hey, if you’re one of those who prefer in-person events because “an Excel sheet lacks soul,” here you’ll find over 30,000 professionals who share your interests.

What is Advanced Factories?

Advanced Factories is the meeting point for companies and professionals driving the industry into the future. Over three days, you’ll have access to more than 560 companies showcasing the latest innovations in robotics, automation, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, digital twins, and even concepts we haven’t figured out how to translate into Spanish yet.

On top of that, the Industry 4.0 Congress awaits you with over 360 experts who aren’t just here to talk—they’re here to inspire. This is where the sector’s major trends are discussed, from integrating IoT in factories to what “big data” really means (spoiler: it’s more than just a lot of data on a flash drive).
