We are pleased to announce that DRWO4.0 will be presented at the 8th International Conference on Processing Technologies for the Forest and Bio-based Products Industries (PTF BPI 2025), taking place in Kuchl / Salzburg, Austria, on September 18–19, 2025.

At PTF BPI 2025, our project partner Salzburg University of Applied Sciences will present how DRWO4.0 is addressing disparities in digital adoption by:

Conducting baseline assessments of industry readiness,
Establishing Pilot Environments for transnational knowledge exchange,
Delivering capacity-building and train-the-trainer activities, including workshops on LEAN, non-destructive testing, and sustainable construction,
Developing the Industry 4.0 Transformation Model and Guidelines for SMEs, policymakers, and educational institutions.

Stay tuned for more details from the conference and insights into how DRWO4.0 is shaping the future of the wood-based bioeconomy. We warmly invite all stakeholders, researchers, and industry professionals to join us in Kuchl and take part in the discussion on the digital transformation of the forest-based sector.
