20th International Dresden Lightweight Engineering Symposium
Juni 09 - 10, 2016
The Dresden International Lightweight Engineering Symposium is an established platform for the transfer of cross-sector, cross-product knowledge and experience between science, industry, society and the political sphere. From its inception in 1997 to this anniversary year the symposium has followed the principles of the Dresden Model, which is now applied throughout all major industries and promotes “function-integrating lightweight engineering in multi-material design” and the inherent material and energy efficiency thereof.
Megatrends such as digitalization, sustainability, urbanization, connectivity and mobility call for innovative organizations with the ability to blaze a trail for novel materials, technologies and systems which cater to the changing needs of a world population set to rise to over 9 billion people by 2050. Integrated lightweight engineering is already an indispensable element of resource-efficient mobility and also has a crucial role to play in a variety of other fields. Its blend of intelligently networked high-end technology and mobility products puts integrated lightweight engineering in a position to tap into a sustainable source of growth, jobs, prosperity and social justice.
Their strategic partnerships in the fields of research, science, education and innovative high technology enable China and Germany to tackle global challenges. On the one hand China’s potential in terms of growth and innovation makes it Germany’s most important economic partner in Asia. On the other, Germany’s technological expertise makes it China’s most important European trading partner. The new Chinese Five-Year Plan targets sustainable development driven by an increasingly broad palette of innovative technologies and products – an approach which presents companies and research institutes in both countries with outstanding opportunities for cooperation and joint ventures.
It is against this backdrop that the 20th Dresden International Lightweight Engineering Symposium will focus on pioneering topics and projects in the fields of mobility and digitalization. Particular emphasis will be placed on the role our partner country China has to play. As a synergetic event for lightweight engineering specialists the symposium also aims to provide a forum for cutting-edge research and development activities as well as future-proof international business concepts. Partnership between equals offers one thing above all: Opportunities. It is therefore my pleasure to invite you to explore a host of those opportunities with us here in the city of Dresden – an open-minded, outward-looking centre for high technology and home to both a University of Excellence and a variety of top-class non-university institutions.

Die lebendige Atmosphäre eines europaweit bekannten Museums und die vielfältigen Raumangebote eines Architekturdenkmals der Klassischen Moderne bieten eine unverwechselbare Location für das 21. Internationale Dresdner Leichtbausymposium 2017. Die zentrale und doch ruhige Lage zwischen der Altstadt mit Frauenkirche, Zwinger und Semperoper und dem Großen Garten, der zentralen Parkanlage Dresdens, machen das Deutsche Hygiene-Museum zu einem ganz besonderen Ort. Die Gründung des Deutschen Hygiene-Museums (1912) geht zurück auf eine Initiative des Dresdner Industriellen und Odol-Fabrikanten Karl August Lingner (1861-1916). Lingner hatte 1911 zu den Protagonisten der I. Internationalen Hygiene-Ausstellung gehört, zu der über fünf Millionen Besucher nach Dresden gekommen waren.
