SMU Steel Summit Conference Close to Being Sold Out
Written by John Packard
August 15, 2017
Steel Market Update (SMU) Steel Summit Conference registrations have been much stronger than ever anticipated, and we are reaching a threshold where we cannot physically put more people into the conference meeting area. We are still taking registrations, but we are literally within 20 people of this steel conference being totally sold out.
Based on heavy demand for tickets already this week, please be aware we anticipate closing SMU Steel Summit Conference registrations by the end of this week.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact John@SteelMarketUpdate.com or by phone at 800-432-3475.
We want to thank the hundreds of steel and manufacturing executives who have registered for this event and we look forward to hosting you in Atlanta on Aug. 28, 29 and 30.
Please download the SMU Events App for updates, attendee registration list, conference agenda, speaker biographies, sponsors and exhibitor information and social media posts. The App is where you will get the speaker presentations once the conference has concluded.
