“SME and AMT are each bringing their unique strengths to this collaboration, which will provide our members and the manufacturing industry at large with innovative, best-in-class events to drive business success,” AMT President Douglas K. Woods said in a statement. “We look forward to exciting developments as our partnership grows.” SME and AMT first partnered on an event-related agree- ment in 1989. The idea was to pull together both organiza- tions’ resources to develop forums where manufacturers could see the latest technologies in their own regions of the US. “SME and AMT are an excellent pairing, representing the individuals and companies that are the end-users and build- ers of manufacturing technology,” said SME Chief Executive Officer Jeff Krause. “Together, our organizations represent the manufacturing marketplace.” The 2017–18 events will benefit from the cooperation and collaboration of AMT and SME. Some updates could potentially include: innovative new learning opportunities, new interactive exhibits and more ways for attendees and
exhibitors to connect and collaborate.
“The dynamic of manufacturing is changing dramatically, and manufacturers are demanding the latest and most in- novative events and solutions available,” said Peter Eelman, AMT vice president of exhibitions and business development. “The combination of AMT and SME will bring those solutions to a wider audience. We are excited about future possibilities as the industry evolves and the events evolve along with it.” “Events are the live platform that drives collaboration,” said
Vice President of SME Events and Industry Strategy Debbie Holton. “As two of the largest producers of manufacturing events in North America, SME and AMT provide regional ven- ues that manufacturing professionals rely on to see the latest technology and create business opportunities.”
