CESI at the SEISMEC General Assembly in Thessaloniki

On 21–22 October 2025, CESI took part in the SEISMEC General Assembly (GA) hosted by CERTH in Thessaloniki, Greece. The meeting brought together all project partners to take stock of progress, exchange insights, and plan the way forward for the next phase of SEISMEC.

The sessions covered updates from the project’s various pilot sites and discussions on how to strengthen human-centric approaches across industrial technologies. CESI contributed to the dialogue on the ethical, social, and economic dimensions of manufacturing innovation and how these can be better reflected in practice. The meeting also provided opportunities to connect with partners and share lessons learned.

About SEISMEC

SEISMEC is an EU-funded Horizon Europe project that aims to embed human-centric, ethical, and socially sustainable principles into industrial manufacturing. Its goal is to ensure that technological progress goes hand in hand with fairness, wellbeing, and accountability at work.

By developing tools, frameworks, and pilot demonstrations, SEISMEC helps companies and research partners understand and measure how their innovations affect people and communities.

As a partner in SEISMEC, CESI brings the voice of workers into the project. Through its expertise in social dialogue, labour rights, and policy development, CESI ensures that human-centric innovation remains grounded in real workplace realities and European social values.

At the Thessaloniki meeting, CESI reaffirmed its commitment to promoting a transition to ethical, inclusive, and worker-focused industrial transformation — one that balances technological progress with respect for people.
