Reliability Symposium

Explore the future of reliability at the Holland Innovative Reliability Symposium

6 June 2024, 09.00hr - 17.00hr

AI Innovation Center, HTC 5, 5656 AA Eindhoven

Welcome!

Following the success of the 2021 Reliability Seminar, Holland Innovative is once again organizing an symposium that brings together reliability specialists from across the Netherlands and beyond. This year, the theme focuses on System Reliability and Availability, bridging the gap between new trends in Systems Engineering and Reliability Engineering. There will also be discussions on topics such as Availability and Maintainability. Expect inspiring speakers from knowledge institutes and businesses, sharing both fundamental new concepts and practical case reports.

The symposium will take place on June 6, 2024, at the AI Innovation Center on the High Tech Campus in Eindhoven. In addition to presentations, there will be ample time for discussions and networking; lunch and refreshments are included.
