Instead of listening to a session this year, consider being in the “driver’s seat” and present at METALCON 2022. Call for presentations is underway! We are seeking dynamic presenters who can educate, engage, inspire and present on “real-world” topics aligned with current industry challenges and opportunities. Topics need to be appropriate for a specific experience level or for a specific audience segment of the metal construction community. Be a part of the acceleration at this year’s METALCON, scheduled to take place October 12-14 in Indianapolis, Indiana, “Home of the Indy 500.”
As promised, METALCON Live!’s robust schedule is already offering rich credit-earning learning opportunities for this new year. Industry veterans Lee Shoemaker with MBMA and Steve Reiners with Behlen Manufacturing Company kicked off the new year with one of the highest attended webinars, “Metal Building Systems 101.”
The Metal Construction Association’s Winter Meeting, scheduled for January 24-26, will take place at the Scottsdale Resort at McCormick Ranch in Scottsdale, Arizona. Amidst the backdrop and warmth of the Sonoran Desert, members of the metal construction community will come together to expand their professional network and learn about emerging hot topics. In addition to two keynote addresses, council and committee meetings will take a look inside metal roofing and solar PV systems, MCA’s new “Metal in Architecture Academy,” updates on the 10 most common questions about roll forming equipment, and more.
At their Annual Meeting held last month, the Metal Building Manufacturers Association (MBMA) recognized thirteen companies with their Industry Advocate award, an honor given to a member with exceptional involvement in enhancing the organization’s initiatives. “This program recognizes the incredible companies that invest time and expertise into supporting MBMA’s efforts and are advocates for the entire metal building industry,” says Tony Bouquot, MBMA general manager. “The commitment displayed by these members is crucial to advancing metal building solutions worldwide.” Additionally, Dave Tomchak of Bay Insulation Systems and Todd Carlson of Owens Corning were recognized as the 2021 Innovation Award winners for their proposal to create an air leakage best practices video. Their 2022 board of directors were also elected at the annual meeting and include Tom Boal of Behlen Building Systems as Chair and Mark Van Dyken with Nucor Building Systems as Vice Chair. METALCON congratulates the winners and the newly elected board members.
Did you know that 88% of the attendees at METALCON evaluate, recommend, approve and authorize purchases for their company? Being a sponsor at the show means exposure before, during and after by reaping the benefits from marketing campaigns that reach all segments of the metal construction audience. METALCON has an extensive range of sponsorship opportunities to fit any budget.
