We are starting to receive nominations for the 1st SMU NexGen Leadership Award. We will accept nominations through Aug. 1. Remember, we are looking for those amongst you who have been innovative, creative problem solvers, perhaps creating new systems or leading through troubled times. There are an unlimited number of reasons to nominate one of your 35-year-old or younger employees. If you have any questions, or would like something clarified, please do not hesitate to reach out to me personally: John@SteelMarketUpdate.com

The next Steel 101: Introduction to Steel Making and Market Fundamentals workshop will be held on Oct. 8-9, 2019, and we will tour the Nucor Gallatin steel mill as part of the workshop. This is our first trip to Nucor Gallatin, which will have the newest coating line in the United States in operation when we tour the facility. We are working on finalizing hotel details and anticipate we will be able to begin taking registrations later this week. There is information about our Steel 101 workshop online at www.SteelMarketUpdate.com/Events/Steel101 or you can ask us at Events@SteelMarketUpdate.com
