By considering the new trends and requests valid in the field of manufacturing engineering from the entire world, starting from 2013, the name of the conference was changed in „Innovative Manufacturing Engineering” and later in „Innovative Manufacturing Engineering and Energy”. Over the last few years, other departments from universities in Romania (Braşov, Bucureşti, Cluj, Galaţi and Piteşti) or other countries (Serbia, Greece) have been involved in organizing the conference.List of Honorary Committee, Scientific Committee, Organizing Committee, Keynote Speakers, Conference Chair, Sections Chairs, Sponsors and Partners are available in this PDF.
