About the Conference
The International Conference on Industrial Digital Twins for Smart Manufacturing (ICIDTSM 2026) will be held from 20–22 July 2026 at Indian Institute of Technology Madras, bringing together global leaders from academia, industry, research laboratories, and technology enterprises to explore the next evolution of intelligent manufacturing systems.
ICIDTSM 2026 is designed as a high-impact international platform to examine how emerging technologies are reshaping industrial ecosystems — from connected machines and autonomous robotics to AI-driven decision systems and fully integrated Digital Twin environments. The conference will focus on bridging fundamental research, applied engineering, and scalable industrial deployment, enabling meaningful dialogue between scientists, system architects, policymakers, and manufacturing practitioners.
As global industries transition from Industry 4.0 toward more resilient, human-centric Industry 5.0 paradigms, the need for real-time intelligence, interoperability, sustainability, and autonomous adaptability has never been greater. This conference aims to address these challenges by fostering interdisciplinary collaboration and encouraging innovative solutions that integrate sensing, computation, control, intelligence, and cyber-physical synchronization into cohesive smart manufacturing ecosystems.
Participants can expect keynote lectures by distinguished experts, technical paper presentations, industry panels, technology demonstrations, and opportunities for strategic research and industrial partnerships.
