LightCon will take place on June 13 and 14, 2023, at the Hannover Exhibition Center under the motto "Lightweight construction as an answer to energy and material scarcity". The congress fair offers participants exciting topics, know-how, best practices and of course space for discussions and networking.

LightCon is the first international platform to present lightweight solutions for a wide range of user industries across materials and technologies. Developers, engineers, designers, buyers and management at all levels from user industries such as transport and mobility (road and rail), aerospace, mechanical engineering, naval architecture, construction, wind energy, medical technology and the sports and leisure industry meet at LightCon. As a vertical trade show, LightCon covers the entire value chain of lightweight construction, spanning materials from applied research to materials, tools for design and development, prototyping and component testing, manufacturing technologies, and joining and bonding technology to recycling. In addition, LightCon offers a varied conference program with top-class speakers and interesting presentations. The conference language is English.

The attendance of high-ranking politicians at LightCon and the assumption of patronage by Dr. Robert Habeck, Federal Minister of Economics and Climate Protection, underscore the great importance of lightweight construction technology for the development of Germany as an industrial location. Opening speakers include Parliamentary State Secretary Michael Kellner at the Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection and Olaf Lies, Minister of Economics of the State of Lower Saxony.
