Nearly 250 Companies Attending SMU's Steel Summit...So Far
Written by Brett Linton
May 29, 2018
Last year, it took Steel Market Update until Aug. 1 to reach the number of registrations already booked for the 2018 SMU Steel Summit Conference. Today alone we received registrations from: Duferco, L&W Supply, A.B. Martin Roofing Supply, Ryerson, Lapham-Hickey Steel and Roll-Kraft. We are just a few people shy of 550 and on our way toward 600. Last year our total registrations was 667 executives (17 of which received refunds due to the Houston hurricane). We are confident we will reach our goal of 800 attendees and close to 300 companies for this year’s SMU Steel Summit Conference.
Here is the list as of the end of last week of the 249 companies registered to attend this year’s conference. Those with an asterisk (*) have more than one person attending. If you do not see your company on the list, you can register here on our website or you can contact our office at 772-932-7538.
You are welcome to share this article with your steel industry friends, suppliers and customers. If you have any questions, please contact SMU at 772-932-7538 or by email at: info@SteelMarketUpdate.com.
