2019 SMU Steel Summit Conference – A Sneak Peek – Day 1

The Georgia International Convention Center (www.gicc.com) as well as the three Gateway Hotels (Marriott, Renaissance and SpringHill Suites) are all conveniently located at the first stop of the free SkyTrain out of the Atlanta International Airport (ATL). The second stop on the SkyTrain is for car rentals. Our overflow hotel – the Atlanta Airport Marriott – is located one exit south of the convention center. We will be running free shuttles from that hotel to the convention center during the conference. There is also a free shuttle from the airport to that hotel (cannot be reached by the SkyTrain).

For almost one year, the Steel Market Update and CRU teams have been diligently working on putting together what we think will be an exceptional steel conference, one that will be remembered long after it is over. Today, I would like to go through a portion of the agenda to give those coming, as well as those who have not yet decided to attend, a sense of why certain agenda segments were selected, who the speakers are and what to expect out of this year’s event.
