2021 SMU Steel Summit Conference Will Be a “Hybrid” Event
There is nothing better than attending the SMU Steel Summit Conference in person. However, if you are unable to travel to this year’s conference, we do have an option for you. We will be “live-streaming” the event through our virtual platform. You will be able to view who has registered for the event and interact with them. Should you miss a presentation, a recording will be available to you through the platform.
Those of you who are attending the event in person will also be able to access our virtual platform. This is where you will be able to view the list of attendees, our agenda, speaker profiles and get access to presentation slides. Live attendees will no longer miss a presentation because they will be recorded and available on the platform.
Register here to join your peers for the August 23-25 conference.
