Over the past 13 years, AMM Events has brought you the most comprehensive look at the Mexican steel industry. For its 14^th year, AMM will delve deeper into the issues and challenges at the forefront of Mexico’s growing steel markets.

Amid an impressive networking opportunity, attendees will get updates and outlooks on Mexico’s steel production and the latest projects slated for this newly industrialized country which is now the 12^th largest economy in the world based on GDP.

The diverse views of the presenters will cover topics ranging from service center and processor capacity issues to pricing trends, logistics and customs/border issues to end-user views from the auto, appliance, wire and construction markets.

While an impressive attendance list and networking opportunities define this event, the presentations will help attendees navigate though the challenging new market in Mexico and define strategies that can be used to become more competitive.

AMM invites you to join this conference to find out what is next for this market as over 350 industry experts, steel market pioneers, buyers, service centers, manufacturers, end-users and others meet to discuss the year and new era ahead.
