CERAMITEC 2012 has entered into a close cooperation with the 10th CMCEE "International Symposium on Ceramic Materials and Components for Energy and Environmental Applications", which takes place from May 20 to 23, 2012 in Dresden. Between 600 and 800 international delegates are expected to attend this highly regarded congress.

The speakers include both outstanding scientists from all over the world, as well as experts from business and industry. The excellent response so far to the call for papers points strongly to the high caliber of this upcoming event. In twelve sessions, international experts will be able to engage in discussion and debate on the key questions in the field of ceramic components and materials for energy and environmental technology.
 
On Thursday, May 24, 2012, the symposium will continue in Munich at CERAMITEC in the form of the "Technical Ceramics Day". Many of the delegates from the CMCEE International Symposium are expected to attend this day, as speakers and discussion partners. Ceramic components for energy and environmental applications and their manufacture will also be the highlight at the MEETING POINT CERAMICS, a presentation by 30 exhibitors at CERAMITEC.
 
This is proof of CERAMITEC´s unique status as a leading platform for research and development, industry and applications.
 
The participants in CMCEE and all other visitors to CERAMITEC also have the chance to attend AUTOMATICA, the 5th International Trade Fair for Automation and Mechatronics. AUTOMATICA runs in parallel with CERAMITEC at the New Munich Trade Fair Center, but it is accessed from the West Entrance. Back in 2006 both events also took place in parallel, with great success.
