SMU Steel Summit Conference Update: Its All About You
Written by John Packard
A note to those who might be interested, we have a couple of exhibition spots still available for this year’s SMU Steel Summit Conference, which will be held at the Georgia International Convention Center in Atlanta on Aug. 27-29. We will have close to 800 people at this year’s event (the event will be a sellout at 850 people) and we have made some adjustments as we expand our footprint in the convention center to have more interaction between the exhibitors and our attendees. We will provide more details in Sunday evening’s issue regarding the number of CEOs, Vice Presidents, CFOs, etc., so your company can better gauge the depth of the decision-making pool at our conference versus going to another conference at one of our competitors. If you have questions, please contact Jill Waldman at Jill@SteelMarketUpdate.com
As I mentioned above, we are just about to cross 650 registrations for this year’s conference. For those of you who attended last year, you already know what the conference is like with 650 people in the room. Imagine another 100 to 150 people in a similar sized space for 2018. We anticipate the 2018 conference will be the best attended, the best networking group of attendees, the best program and that our conference offers the absolute best value for your company’s hard-earned dollars when you take into consideration transportation costs (ATL hub airport for the world), no need for rental car, direct and free transportation to and from the airport, good hotels at great prices within an easy walk to the convention center, free networking/cocktail parties for all attendees, many of our speakers tend to remain at the conference to mix with the attendees, a great program with a blend of the familiar and the new, and a friendly SMU staff who knows how to entertain our guests.
