Digitalisation and tools like digital twins are reshaping battery manufacturing by improving efficiency and reducing defects, while advances in lithium‑ion performance, solid‑state technologies, and additive manufacturing are driving next‑generation solutions and strengthening a sustainable European battery value chain. 

The nanoMATexpo is supporting the Advanced Battery Manufacturing Workshop. This event is being co-organised and supported by the battery projects:

• BATTwin – Flexible and scalable digital-twin platform for enhanced production efficiency and yield in battery cell production lines – project (BATTwin).
• AM4BAT – Gen. 4b Solid State Li-ion Battery by Additive Manufacturing (Am4bat Project), and;
• BatCAT – Battery Cell Assembly Twin (BatCAT | NMBU),

The event will take place at Homerton College in Cambridge, UK, on 16–17 April 2026, as a hybrid event.

This two‑day event will offer participants the chance to:

• Explore the latest developments from these three EU‑funded projects
• Connect with researchers, industry partners, and stakeholders shaping the future of battery manufacturing
• Take part in discussions on innovation, digitalisation, and next‑generation cell technologies

Confirmed speakers and registered participants are coming from the following leading organisations and universities: Politecnico di Milano; LEITAT Technological Center; University of Surrey; Soongsil  University; ARIA HDF; ZEISS Microscopy; University of Leeds; Lightning Tree; Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers; Verkor SA; The Royal Institute of Technology (KTH); Upcell Alliance; SERIC; İzmir Institute of Technology; Central South University, Goldbeck Consulting Ltd; Simperler Consulting and Cambridge Nanomaterials Technology Ltd.
