The CEAS Aerospace Europe Conference 2027 will take place from 29 November to 2 December 2027 in Augsburg, Germany. The event brings together experts from research, industry, and public institutions across Europe.
The conference serves as a central platform for scientific, technical, and professional exchange within the European aerospace community. It provides opportunities to present research results, showcase innovative projects, and discuss current developments and future challenges in aerospace.
Augsburg, one of Germany’s oldest cities, is a dynamic centre of high-tech industry with a strong aerospace background. With more than 100 years of aviation history, the region has developed into an important hub for aircraft manufacturing and aerospace technologies. Today, leading industrial companies and research institutions are located here, particularly in the fields of aerostructures, lightweight design, and advanced production technologies.
Augsburg is one of Germany’s key aerospace hubs, where advanced components for aircraft and spacecraft are designed and manufactured. The region is a centre of innovation in hydrogen technologies, lightweight construction, resource-efficient engineering, automation, and the use of artificial intelligence in production processes. Around 25,000 people are currently employed in the aerospace sector in the region, contributing to numerous high-profile projects that continue to shape the industry.
The ecosystem of stakeholders is broad and highly interconnected. On the industrial side, it includes companies such as MT Aerospace, Airbus Aerostructures, Airbus Helicopters, KUKA, Liebherr, SGL, and many others. Equally important is the strong research landscape, featuring institutions such as the Applied Materials and Environmental Research Center (AMU), the German Aerospace Center (DLR), the Fraunhofer Institute for Casting, Composite and Processing Technology (IGCV), the Institute for Materials Resource Management (MRM) at the University of Augsburg, and the Augsburg University of Applied Sciences.
