From September 16–18, 2026, the International Symposium on Piezocomposite Applications (ISPA) will once again bring together global leaders in the field of piezoelectric composite technologies. Hosted by Fraunhofer IKTS in collaboration with Smart Material, the forum will take place in Dresden, Germany – one of Europe’s most vibrant innovation hubs.
Under the theme “Where Frontiers Meet”, ISPA 2026 explores how exclusive material technologies and extreme real-world challenges drive breakthrough innovation. Experts from research and industry will discuss how piezocomposites, acoustic polymers, and advanced fillers enable new solutions in aerospace, naval, energy, and mobility applications – from orbit to ocean, from micro-sensing to structural health monitoring.
Join leading researchers, engineers, and application specialists shaping the next generation of smart materials.
