The PLI Conferences 2025 will take place on September 24 and 25 at the CCI Campus Alsace in Strasbourg. This major event dedicated to industrial laser processes brings together experts, researchers, manufacturers, and users each year to explore the latest technological innovations.
Organized by the CLUB LASER ET PROCÉDÉS, this high-profile event is co-developed with several key partners, including ICUBE, IPG PHOTONICS, IREPA LASER, PRECITEC, and the PHOTONICS INSTITUTE.
In this news, we invite you to meet those who bring this event to life. Today, let’s focus on PRECITEC, a key player in the sector.
Could you introduce your company in a few words?
Precitec offers tailor-made solutions in optical metrology and laser manufacturing (welding, cutting, and additive manufacturing). Our systems are highly technically advanced, high-performance, and adapted to the specific needs of each customer.
Our non-contact measurement systems make a significant contribution to defect-free production. Thanks to our innovative solutions in laser cutting, welding, and additive manufacturing, we are setting new benchmarks in quality, precision, and economic performance for industrial users.
What motivated you to get involved in the co-organization of this event?
The latest editions have clearly demonstrated the growing importance of this must-attend event. Our commitment became obvious. The outstanding quality of the organization, the relevance of the topics covered, and the high level of presentations convinced us of the value of actively contributing. Being part of the organizing team allows us not only to support a meaningful initiative but also to take part in the exchange of knowledge on forward-looking topics.
In your opinion, what makes the PLI Conferences unique within the landscape of industrial events?
The event’s unique focus on laser processes in the broadest sense is unrivalled in France. The quality and number of speakers enable top-level discussions among participants. All of this takes place within an event that remains friendly and on a human scale.
How do you see the role of conferences like the PLI Conferences evolving in spreading laser innovations?
The PLI Conferences are an unmissable gathering for our professional network. Positioned at the crossroads of academia, industry, and solution providers, they create a favourable environment for exchanging ideas and encourage open communication around technological innovations. This collective expertise space truly offers us an opportunity for mutual growth and shared development. In today’s ultra-connected world, in-person contact drives personal momentum and sparks new ideas and commitments.
A memorable moment or anecdote from previous editions to share?
We particularly enjoyed participating in the 2024 edition, which was held at the Palais de la Bourse in Bordeaux. It not only showcased the dynamic growth of the laser community but also stood out thanks to the choice of an exceptional venue. The successful blend of modernity and tradition helped create an inspiring atmosphere conducive to quality exchanges. We also appreciated the event’s growing openness beyond French borders.
A few words to encourage professionals to attend this edition?
With such a diverse and qualified panel of participants and speakers, highly professional organization, and topics at the heart of current challenges, the PLI Conferences 2025 promise to meet and exceed attendees’ expectations.
As a first-time co-organiser, we have the opportunity to open the doors of our site for a visit to our headquarters. After over a year of renovation, our new facilities were officially inaugurated in 2024. Welcoming the French laser community to this site and presenting our laser solutions live in our laboratory is a real source of pride for us. All our teams will be on hand to contribute to discussions and answer participants’ questions in a spirit of sharing and collaboration.
Join this unique momentum—come meet industry leaders, discover the latest advancements, and exchange ideas at the heart of a dynamic ecosystem.
See you on September 24 and 25, 2025, in Strasbourg for two days filled with insights, networking, and future opportunities!
