The International Styrian Noise, Vibration and Harshness (ISNVH) Congress will celebrate its 25th edition in 2026. Since the first event in 2001, ISNVH has developed into a well-regarded meeting point for experts in vehicle acoustics and vibration.

ISNVH stands out because of its strong focus on connecting industry and academic research. Many major European car manufacturers — including Audi, BMW, Stellantis, Ford, Porsche, Renault, Volkswagen, and Volvo — are part of the Scientific Program Committee. Hyundai has joined as well, showing the event’s growing global relevance, particularly with rising interest from Asia.

Leading universities and research institutions from across Europe, North America, and Asia are also represented in the Scientific Program Committee and therefore play an important role in shaping the technical content of the congress.

In 2024, around 200 participants from 21 countries attended ISNVH, including representatives from additional global OEMs like Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Chery, and Li Auto. The broad mix of participants demonstrates the international relevance of the congress.

The next event will take place from June 17 to 19, 2026, in Graz, Austria. With the title “NVH Strategies for Global Competitiveness”, it will focus on methods, tools, and concepts in the NVH field that can support the automotive industry in addressing the challenges of tomorrow’s market — shaped by uncertainty, increasing international competition, and rapidly evolving mobility concepts.

We’re looking forward to this anniversary edition and to welcoming the international NVH community once again.
