About COBEM
COBEM, the International Congress of Mechanical Engineering, is the most important event organized by ABCM. It brings together a wide range of topics related to mechanical sciences and engineering, showcasing the work of ABCM’s 19 technical committees.
COBEM’s journey began in 1971, with the first edition held in Florianópolis. Since then, it has grown into Brazil’s most prominent forum for discussions on mechanical sciences and engineering. Over the years, COBEM has expanded its scope, attracting participants from academia, industry, and research institutions both nationally and internationally.
The COBEM 2025, with the theme “Artificial Intelligence for a Sustainable Tomorrow“, will take place from November 9 to 14, 2025, in Curitiba, at the Federal University of Paraná (UFPR). This edition aims to build on the legacy of previous congresses, providing a unique space for sharing knowledge, fostering innovation, and encouraging collaboration in mechanical engineering.
The 28th International Congress of Mechanical Engineering (COBEM 2025) brings together researchers, students, and professionals from around the world under the theme "Artificial Intelligence for a Sustainable Tomorrow." With nearly five decades of tradition, the congress has become the largest mechanical engineering meeting in Brazil, fostering dialogue between science, industry, and society. The 2025 edition also features the 1st Pitch Day UFPR - COBEM Opening Event, an innovative space where academic, technological, and startup projects are presented in a dynamic pitch format, connecting research, entrepreneurship, and impact.
