CAFMET events are exceptional opportunities for participants from many countries, working in a wide variety of sectors but specialising in increasingly cross-disciplinary and interconnected disciplines, to come together in the same place at the same time.

At the academic level, what's the point of putting up barriers between people from different fields ("Humanities", "Exact sciences", "Mechanics", "Automation", "Psychology", etc.) when they can and must work together to advance science, but also to meet the challenges of today and tomorrow.

CAFMETs are also exceptional events, as they highlight important areas that link us all, including Quality and Measurement. These two areas at the heart of the conferences now require particular societal attention, given the vital needs affecting our beautiful planet, which concern us all closely, whether we are aware of it or not.

The conferences and practical workshops offered as part of CAFMET events demonstrate once again that we still have so much to learn to train future generations, but also to innovate, while preserving our safety, health and well-being.

Let's go further together!
