Guenther Steiner to Deliver Keynote at Smart Manufacturing Week

03 June, 2025

Drawing on decades at the sharp end of motorsport, Steiner will explore how Formula 1’s split-second decision-making, extreme reliability demands, and advanced manufacturing processes offer practical lessons for industry. From accelerating design cycles and reducing downtime to ensuring system reliability and managing mission-critical operations, attendees can expect real-world takeaways.

These lessons will be brought to life through candid stories from his time at the helm of a Formula 1 team, offering a window into the world of leading high-pressure, high-tech teams in one of the most demanding environments in sport. From last-minute technical challenges that put entire race weekends at risk to operational challenges that shape the outcome of a season, his stories offer a rare window into managing complexity, speed and scrutiny at the highest level.

This keynote is set to be a highlight of day two at Smart Manufacturing Week, giving manufacturing and engineering professionals across all sectors a rare insight into how elite teams perform under pressure and how those lessons can be applied to the factory floor.
