Final Thoughts
Written by John Packard
Over the next few weeks we will begin rolling out our program and our speakers for this year’s SMU Steel Summit Conference. I am very excited as the program is coming together very well and I believe this will be our best conference to date. We have taken the suggestions received last year as well as in previous years and we have tried to incorporate into our program as many of our past attendee suggestions as possible without losing the integrity and quality of our program.
We will once again have a “Pre-Summit” program which will be held at the Atlanta Airport Marriott Gateway Hotel on Monday afternoon, August 28th. We will be advising the topic soon but, for those who are planning on attending our conference, we recommend that you plan your travel so that you are at the hotel around 1 to 2 PM so you can participate in our afternoon “Pre-Summit” program and be available for our “unofficial” networking cocktail party in the lounge on the main floor of the hotel. Last year we had a more than one hundred steel people in the lobby and we expect this year to be even larger.
