Industry is undergoing rapid transformation through the adoption of agentic AI,
driving the creation of new methodological frameworks, evolving best practices, and creative applications. Organizations across the globe face growing demands for efficiency, scalability, sustainability, and reliability, making these factors essential to industrial competitiveness. To achieve these goals, requirements for performance, interoperability, maintainability, and quality must be systematically specified, analyzed, implemented, verified, and monitored across all industrial systems where outcomes carry significant economic and societal impact.

The COMPSAC Symposium on Industry serves as a forum for researchers, practitioners, and industry leaders to present and exchange ideas on the role of computing and software technologies in shaping industrial practices and applications. Aligned with the theme of the COMPSAC main conference, the Industry Symposium invites submissions of research papers and industrial experience reports that address challenges, propose solutions, and showcase applications across diverse domains such as manufacturing, energy, healthcare, transportation, logistics, finance, and beyond in relation to Industry’s adoption of agentic AI.
