The steel industry faces a turning point

The ongoing recession in the German economy, new challenges on the international markets and continuing high energy prices are pushing companies in the primary industries to their limits. Falling demand from the steel processing sectors over the years has led to price pressure and overcapacity in the steel industry.

• How are companies managing to adapt to this challenging economic environment?
• What can digitalization, artificial intelligence and other innovations contribute to achieving a turnaround?
• Can the green transformation still be achieved?

We will be asking these questions at HÜTTENTAG 2025 and looking for answers together.
