2nd Annual Auto Steel & Metals

October 30 - Nov. 1, 2007
Loews Vanderbilt Hotel     Nashville, TN

 

 

In 2006, more than 250 people gathered at the inaugural AMM Auto Steel and Metals Conference. In less than three weeks time we invite you to Nashville to discuss one of the most important markets to the steel and metals business as well as to benefit from unrivalled networking and deal making opportunities. Building on the success of the inaugural event, the 2007 agenda will cover the most topical questions and key issues in the industry, including:

 

  • Market outlook - the changing picture in North America and its impact on the metals industry
  • Supply to the auto industry - how can you capitalize on new developments?
  • The battle for market share - aluminum vs. steel, and the change in steel from old to new material
  • Engineering trends and impacts - how are alternative technologies adapting to changes in the auto industry
  • New technologies and breakthroughs in recycling

 

Whatever your role in the auto industry, the 2nd Annual Auto Steel & Metals event is not to be missed!  In its first year, it has firmly established itself as the key learning and networking opportunity for the auto metals markets bringing together the top automotive manufacturers, original equipment suppliers, and metal industry leaders.
