The Skills Revolution Conference 2026 takes place on 20–21 April in Cluj-Napoca and will bring together leaders from industry, policy, and education to tackle one of Europe’s most pressing challenges: building a workforce fit for the future.
Skills (R)Evolution focuses on the human side of transformation. It explores how industry, education and training systems, public authorities, and European initiatives can work together to anticipate skills needs, modernise learning pathways, and strengthen workforce resilience.
The programme typically combines keynote interventions, panel discussions, workshops and networking activities, creating a format that links policy debate with practical implementation. It also marks the launch of the Erasmus+ TRIREME project and is co-organised with SEMI Europe and the European Chips Skills Academy, reflecting the growing link between automotive and semiconductor industries.
As part of the programme, Rolf Schreuder, Director European Affairs at PTVT and member of the EU STEM Coalition, will join a high-level panel on “Industrial Jobs in the Spotlight: Securing Today’s Workforce, Shaping Tomorrow’s Talent.”
