22nd International Conference on Manufacturing Research 2025

The International Conference on Manufacturing Research (ICMR2025) will take place from 10th to 12th September 2025 at the University of Birmingham, UK. It will include keynote presentations by internationally renowned researchers and industrialists, as well as papers from academia and industry, exploring all core areas of advanced and digital manufacturing engineering.

Initiated by the Consortium of UK University Manufacturing and Engineering Heads (COMEH), ICMR has been the UK’s main manufacturing research conference for 38 years and an international conference since 2003 - bringing researchers, academics and industrialists together to share their vision, knowledge and experience, and discuss emerging trends and new challenges.

With the accelerating globalisation of manufacturing in the 21st century, the urgent need to keep pace has produced rapid advancements in technology, research, and innovation. ICMR solicits papers on both cutting-edge and emerging theoretical research and its recent industrial applications with the goal of bringing together practical and theoretical knowledge from academic, governmental, and industrial organisations across the world.
