Every year, BIBA participates in the nationwide Supply Chain Day with the Mittelstand Digital Zentrum Bremen Oldenburg and offers an event with changing topics. In 2026, the focus will be on cybersecurity in logistics.

True to the motto “AI in logistics? But of course!”, we cordially invite you to discover the potential of digitalization and artificial intelligence in logistics, with a special focus on relevant cybersecurity aspects. You can look forward to compact keynote speeches from science and industry, practical live demonstrations in the BIBA shop floor lab and opportunities to exchange ideas with experts.

As part of the expo, we will demonstrate, among other things, how energy resilience and the protection of critical infrastructures work in practice, how cyberattacks in logistics environments are detected and analyzed, how deepfakes are created, and what methods exist for detecting them. We will also showcase automated driving and the use of AI for process optimization in port operations, networked and assisted forklift solutions for internal use, and an administration shell demonstrator that illustrates the use of digital twins for interoperable data networking.

BIBA is participating in Girls'Day again this year. Female students are invited to gain exciting insights into the world of technology and research. This allows them to become interested in studying science or technology. Low-threshold hands-on tasks allow participants to experience technology up close. They can also get creative themselves. 

The Mycelium Workshop focuses on mycelium composites. Students learn what this sustainable material is and how versatile it can be - for example, by building their own candle holders. In addition, our hackspace in the BIBA Shopfloor Lab opens its doors. From product design for 3D printing to the precise manufacture of small parts with a laser cutter to personalized giveaways: here, students can develop their own ideas and implement them immediately.

On June 13, 2026, the University of Bremen invites everyone interested to its Open Campus. Under the motto “Opening Worlds – Sharing Knowledge,” a diverse program awaits you, offering insights into research, teaching, and campus life. BIBA will participate with two guided tours in the BIBA Shopfloor Lab.

In one tour, we’ll show how production and supply chains can be made more sustainable and energy-resilient throughout their lifecycle. Experience our model factory as a demonstration of energy-flexible production and see how renewable energy, efficiency measures, and smart connections between generation, storage, and consumption work together.

In the joint tour with the LogDynamics research cluster, practice and science are combined to achieve logistical precision. Learn how innovations are transforming the ports of Bremen into “smart ports.”

We look forward to your visit on June 13 at the University of Bremen campus—come by and discover hands-on research.
