Made in Steel: exchanging ideas
with the whole value chain
The steel industry is changing at high
speed, working to emerge from a crisis
that has lasted almost ten years, setting
new targets and finding new means to
meet them.
Made in Steel 2017 conference
and exhibition, dedicated to steel
producers, traders, manufacturers and
users, will take place from 17 to 19 May
in the headquarters of Fieramilano,
Halls 22 and 24. Many of the leading
companies in the steel industry have
already confirmed their participation
in this seventh edition of the Made in
Steel trade show.
Six months ahead of the opening, 70 per
cent of the exhibition space had been
sold. Compared to the 2013 edition, the
exhibition area of Made in Steel 2015
was up by 16 per cent, with a 17 per
cent increase in the number of visitors,
totalling almost 13,000.
The title of the May 2017 conference
is ‘Stronger together’. “This refers to
the importance of working in synergy
and the need to review the system,
looking at the future of the companies
that work in the steel industry,” said
Emanuele Morandi, CEO of Made in
Steel. “Therefore, I believe that Made in
Steel is a strategic appointment for the
international steel value chain.”
Made in Steel will foster the exchange
of information with focus meetings
dedicated to the hot topics of the
international steel industry. The three-
day event will not only be an opportunity
to do business, but will also feature
conferences, events and seminars with
a cast of experts and leaders from the
international economic and steel scene.
