About event

Representatives from business support organizations, academia, and research institutions in Macedonia are invited to take part in an exclusive focus group exploring how Industry 4.0, digitalization, and the circular economy can strengthen industrial transformation in the Western Balkans.

Organized under the UNIDO project “Fostering Industry 4.0 for Green Transition and Circular Economy in the Western Balkans”, funded by the Governments of Slovenia and Cyprus, the session provides an opportunity to exchange perspectives, align priorities, and strengthen cooperation for the region’s industrial future.

  • Discuss challenges and gaps in existing support systems, knowledge transfer, and research-to-industry linkages.

  • Identify opportunities for collaboration, training, and policy development to foster innovation and circular practices.

  • Contribute to shaping tailored support programs that address the real needs of the industrial and innovation ecosystem.

  • Network with peers and experts engaged in advancing Industry 4.0 and the green transition.
