Driving Innovation to Power Europe’s Gigafactory Expansion

PAST PARTICIPANTS

We bring together leaders in battery manufacturing, engineering, and industrial technology to address key bottlenecks in gigafactory design, delivery, and scale-up across the UK and Europe, supporting rapid industrial deployment, investment readiness, long-term supply chain resilience, and cross-sector collaboration across materials, equipment, and infrastructure ecosystems.

Solve Engineering Challenges: Insights into dry rooms, formation, automation, and yield optimisation.

Connect Across the Value Chain: Meet OEMs, battery producers, EPCs, and equipment suppliers.

Explore Technologies: Battery equipment, energy systems, recycling, AI, and next-generation materials.

Deliver at Scale: Learn how projects overcome site, energy, commissioning, and integration challenges.

Unlock Opportunities: Identify key gaps and position your solutions for gigafactory growth, investment, and commercial deployment.

Join us on November 4- 5, 2026, as we explore the future of gigafactory development and battery manufacturing across the UK and Europe. This summit will bring together battery producers, engineering leaders, EPC contractors, technology innovators, and materials specialists focused on delivering gigafactories at scale. Discover the latest advancements in factory design, production equipment, automation systems, energy infrastructure, and next-generation manufacturing technologies shaping the future of battery production. Together, we will define how to build competitive, scalable, and resilient gigafactory ecosystems.

The pace of gigafactory deployment is influenced by several critical factors, including OEM demand, energy costs, supply chain localisation, and industrial execution capability. These elements ultimately determine how quickly projects move from announcement to stable, high-yield commercial production.

Across the UK and Europe, governments and industry are accelerating efforts to attract investment in gigafactories, battery materials, and supply chain infrastructure. Policy frameworks, incentive programmes, and industrial strategies are increasingly focused on reducing energy cost disadvantages, enabling faster site development, and strengthening domestic manufacturing capability. At the same time, companies are under pressure to deliver cost-competitive, high-performance batteries while scaling production efficiently—making engineering excellence, process optimisation, and technology innovation more critical than ever.
