Tampa Steel Conference 2024: Just a week to go

Written by David Schollaert


We’re just a week away from the 35th Annual Tampa Steel Conference! It’s one of the premier domestic steel conferences and the first can’t-miss event of 2024. If you haven’t already registered, there is still time but make sure to book now!

More than 500 delegates have already signed up to join us at the JW Marriott Tampa Water Street for the event that runs from Sunday through Tuesday, Jan. 28-30. We’ve already beat last year’s attendance, and more registrations keep pouring in.

Visiting Tampa is a great way to beat the winter blues. On hand will be executives from steel mills, trading companies, manufacturing, distribution, logistics, warehouses, and ports, as well as industry analysts, bankers, and suppliers.

You can learn more about the agenda and explore networking opportunities here. Not to mention register for the golf tournament, and take a harbor tour of Port Tampa Bay.

Hotel accommodations

Though our blocked-off accommodations have been filled, some nearby alternatives are still available. Below are some links for alternative hotels:

Tampa Steel Conference App

This year’s app has launched, so be sure to download the app ahead of time to prepare for the conference. It’s available for download in Android and Apple stores.

The Tampa Steel Conference 2024 app is only available to registered delegates who have paid their registration fee.
