SIM-AM 2025






Meeting and conference

The MIMOSA heritage


Thursday 11 September 2025, 9:00 – 17:00
University of Pavia, Corso Strada Nuova 65 - Room 4

This high-level event is organized by the coordinator of the MIMOSA consortium, a European Commission-supported initiative under the European Health and Digital Executive Agency (HaDEA). MIMOSA is dedicated to pioneering the development of next-generation multimaterial airframes, leveraging innovative 3D joints between additively manufactured metals and carbon-fiber composites.

During this one-day conference, we will bring together key players and stakeholders from the fields of aeronautics, additive manufacturing, metal powder production, metrology, and certification. The event aims to foster knowledge exchange, encourage new collaborations, and unlock opportunities for technology transfer and market development.
