Dear Colleagues,

We are delighted to announce that the UMTIK 2026 – 21st International Conference on Machine Design and Production will be held from 19–21 August 2026, hosted by the Presidency of İstanbul Technical University (ITU) in Istanbul, Türkiye.

This prestigious event will take place at the Gümüşsuyu Campus of ITU, a location chosen for its historical significance and vibrant cultural setting. İstanbul Technical University, founded in 1773 as Mühendishâne-i Bahrî-i Hümâyûn by Sultan Mustafa III, is one of the oldest technical universities in the world, with a longstanding legacy of excellence in engineering and innovation.

Istanbul, a city that bridges continents, contributes approximately 30% of Türkiye’s economy and is part of the Istanbul–İzmit industrial corridor, one of the nation’s key economic regions. As the second most visited city globally, Istanbul offers an inspiring backdrop for academic exchange and collaboration.

We look forward to welcoming researchers, scholars, and industry leaders from around the world to this landmark event in one of the most dynamic and historically rich cities on Earth.
