LightMAT is an event that provides a platform for academic and industrial researchers, scientists, and engineers to present and discuss the recent development and progress made in Magnesium, Aluminium, Titanium and their alloys and materials combinations. Held at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in Trondheim, Norway, LightMAT will focus on Eco-Efficiency in materials and processes, and how innovative research business models can contribute to the accelerated material circularity, sustainability, and dematerialization of our economy.

At LightMAT, attendees will explore materials viewed individually or in multi-material designs, including processing, joining, and corrosion protection. Discussions will cover conventional and advanced lightweight applications and products in automotive, aerospace, and other relevant transport and applications, as well as fundamental aspects of the three metallic lightweight materials and their alloys, their processing and (physical) metallurgy issues involved. Additionally, topics such as microstructure evolution, related properties, advanced simulation, industrial fabrication, and additive manufacturing of metallic structures will be discussed.

LightMAT is the ideal event for those looking to stay ahead of the curve in the field of lightweight materials and processes. Attendees will have the opportunity to gain insight into the latest advances, challenges, and highlights related to the topic, and network with like-minded professionals.
