How do the winds blow for 2013?
The U.S. market has been a singularly positive surprise in the globalstainless steel industry over the past 2 years, outperforming even Chinain terms of growth rates. However, with the elections in November willthe momentum hold?
The recovery from crisis is now complete, the supply chain has been refilled, but allagree that consistent future growth will depend on ‘real’ demand dynamics in thevarious industry segments. It is this future and the dynamics which underpin it whichwill be the focal point of the discussions and analysis at this year’s conference.
Reasons to attend
Understand demand
dynamics in the Americas – the NAFTA
market; Oil & gas; Food processing,
Automotive and construction
Interpret raw material supply for
chrome, nickel & molybdenum –
delays in expected projects coming
onstream and a concomitant reliance
on external sources
Hear from senior speakers – experts
in the field will provide first hand, industry
wrought information and analyses
Network with over 150
delegates – representatives from the
largest, most important companies in
American stainless steel will be
