Welcome Message

Welcome to ESAFORM 2027

It is our great pleasure to welcome you to ESAFORM 2027, the 30th anniversary of the flagship annual event of the European Scientific Association for Material Forming (ESAFORM). ESAFORM is a non-profit scientific association founded in January 1997 with the mission of promoting research, collaboration, and innovation across the wide spectrum of material forming processes.

ESAFORM 2027 will be organized by John von Neumann University, and will take place in Budapest, Hungary, where historical elegance meets modern energy on the banks of the Danube. With the Buda Castle District whisking you back in time and world-famous ruin pubs welcoming you, the city awaits from 28 to 30 April 2027.

Each year, the ESAFORM Conference gathers around 400 leading experts from academia and industry, offering a dynamic platform to present and discuss the latest advances in theory, experimentation, simulation, and application in the field of material forming.

We warmly invite you to join us in celebrating this meaningful milestone — the 30th anniversary of Europe's most influential scientific organization in materials forming science and technology.

We look forward to welcoming you to Budapest!
