SMU Steel Summit: Summer's premier industry event already sizzling

June 14, 2024

We’re less than a week off from the official start of summer, and anticipation leading up to SMU’s Steel Summit 2024 is already heating up.

If you haven’t registered yet for North America’s premier flat-rolled steel conference, don’t delay. Nearly 750 attendees and close to 320 companies have already registered to be in Atlanta this August.

Get ready for another blockbuster event! You can register here.

The skinny

The event runs Monday-Wednesday, Aug. 26-28, in Atlanta at the Georgia International Convention Center (GICC).

We’ve got a host of great speakers lined up, including leaders from mills, service centers, and end-users, as well as analysts, economists, and trade-policy experts. The agenda for the event can be found here.

We’d love for everyone in the SMU Community to join us to learn about the latest steel-price forecasts, economic outlooks, and the current events shaping our industry. Add to that the conference provides some of the best in-person networking opportunities out there.

Summer goes fast, and Aug. 26 is just a little more than two months away. So we encourage you to register today and book your travel arrangements if you haven’t already.

We hope to see you there!
