Since 2003 PLM International Conference (PLM IC) brings together researchers, developers and users of Product Lifecycle Management.

It aims to integrate business approaches to the collaborative creation, management and dissemination of product and process data throughout the extended enterprises that create, manufacture and operate engineered products and systems. The conference aims at involving all stakeholders of the wide concept of PLM, hoping to shape the future of this field and advance the science and practice of enterprise development.
