📍 June 24–25, 2026 | Maritim proArte Hotel | Berlin, Germany
The Premier Hub for Variant and Complexity Managers Smart Variant.CON is the largest and most important annual gathering for variant and complexity managers in machinery, plant engineering, and the manufacturing industry. As product portfolios grow and customization demands reach new heights, navigating the balance between engineering capabilities and sales efficiency has never been more critical.
Connecting over 490 decision-makers from R&D, product management, IT, and sales across the DACH region, the event is where the industry collaborates to discuss AI-supported variant management, digital twins, and fully digitalized configuration processes from the initial quote to the shop floor.
Solving Your Variant Management & Sales Configuration Challenges Selling complex technical products is a massive challenge. Your engineering skills are world-class, but fragmented workflows, disconnected systems, and endless product variations can cripple your sales momentum. When quotes take weeks to coordinate, rely on manual Excel sheets, or struggle with broken SAP integrations, your growth and scaling potential are put at risk.
