Community Meetup 2026
On May 5, 2026, the first Modelica in Process Engineering – Community Meetup will take place in Cologne. We bring together people who use Modelica in process engineering or want to advance the field—from initial ideas to productive applications.

The meetup is a community event focused on the use of Modelica in process engineering, organized by TLK Energy. Its goal is to bring together stakeholders from industry, research, and software development in order to:
The focus is on exchange and networking rather than a traditional “lecture-style” conference. In addition to short impulse talks, there will be plenty of room for discussions, questions, and informal conversations.
Engineers and developers
from the process industry (e.g. chemicals, energy, process plants) who currently use or are evaluating Modelica
Researchers and PhD candidates
who work on modeling, simulation, and process systems engineering
Tool and library developers
who provide Modelica-based software, libraries, or interfaces
Decision-makers
and project managers
who are considering using Modelica in process engineering projects
Whether you are just gaining your first experience or have many years of practice, what matters most is the motivation to advance the use of Modelica in process engineering.

TLK Energy has been working with Modelica in industrial and research projects for many years. During this time, we have seen growing interest in Modelica within process engineering, while opportunities for exchange remain limited. The Community Meetup creates an open, independent space focused on exchange, shared learning, and advancing the use of Modelica in process engineering.
A registration fee of €180 will be charged per participant. This fee covers the costs for the venue, catering, and the evening program.
TLK Energy does not generate any profit from organizing this event.
The number of participants is limited to 45.
