2022 Tampa Steel Conference – Companies Attending & More
Written by John Packard
December 9, 2021
The 33rd Tampa Steel Conference will be live and in-person as we return to the Marriott Water Street Hotel in Tampa, Fla. The conference dates are Feb. 14 (networking opportunities and first day of Introduction to Hedging Workshop), Feb. 15 (golf outing, boat tour, and hedging workshop in the morning followed by the beginning of the conference program in the afternoon, and then capped off with a networking cocktail party in the early evening), and Feb. 16 (full conference program lasting until 3:30 p.m.).
We have expanded the program to allow us more time to discuss topics critical to steel buyers, traders, steel mills, and those associated with the industry. You can learn more about the program and speakers by clicking here.
We anticipate approximately 400 executives participating in the 2022 Tampa Steel Conference. We are well on our way to achieving our attendance goals as the following companies have already registered (those with an * means more than one executive will be attending from that company):

The cost to attend the expanded 2022 Tampa Steel Conference is quite reasonable at $650 per person.

To learn more about the costs to register and available discounts, please click here or go to: www.tampasteelconference.com for more details.
The Introduction to Steel Hedging (formerly called Hedging 101) Workshop cost is separate from the conference fee. However, I believe discounts are being offered to conference attendees. To learn more about the workshop and the costs to attend, please click here.
Come join us in Tampa where you can enjoy warm weather, the comfort of the Marriott Water Street Hotel, which is located on the water close to the port, aquarium, Tampa Bay Lightning Arena, and the convention center. The hotel is located on the light rail line, which can take you across downtown Tampa and out to the historic Ybor district. If you would like to bring your significant other, there are plenty of options for entertainment with Busch Gardens, Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, beaches, golf courses, and much more.
You can add your company name to the list of attending companies by clicking here to register.
