On behalf of Organizers
I have the honor to invite you
to the 32nd FORMING Conference

Magdalena Barbara Jabłońska, Ph.D., D.Sc.
The chair of Forming 2026 Conference Organizing Committee
The International Scientific Conference FORMING is an event with a well-established tradition of over 30 years, consistently strengthening its position as one of the leading platforms for the exchange of knowledge and experience in the fields of advanced manufacturing technologies and materials engineering.
Since its inception, the conference has brought together the scientific community, research and development institutions, and representatives of industry from both Poland and abroad. It provides a forum for substantive discussion, presentation of current research results, and reflection on the future directions of modern industry and technology.
FORMING conferences have been held in Poland, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia, earning recognition for their high scientific quality and a format that genuinely fosters collaboration between academia and industry.
However, one of the conference’s greatest strengths is something that cannot be fully captured in the programme or post-conference publications - it is the atmosphere.
For many years, participants have emphasized that FORMING conference creates exceptional conditions for open dialogue, exchange of experience, and the development of trust-based professional relationships. This welcoming and inspiring environment means that connections established during the conference very often evolve into long-term collaborations and concrete project partnerships—both at the national and international levels. In today’s context, where cross-sector collaboration and the development of professional networks are essential for advancing science and implementing innovation, this aspect of the conference becomes particularly valuable.
