    You have 23 days (as of today) to take advantage of our early bird special registration rates for the SMU Steel Summit Conference which will be held on September 1 & 2, 2015. For our regular customers (subscribers) when you take the early bird special rate and include the $100 per person discount given to member companies the price quickly drops from $1200 per person to $900 per person. We encourage those of you who are planning on attending to register early, and then convince others within your company, suppliers or customers to join you in Atlanta.
