The FOCUS Committee – See you next year!
Congratulations to our student technical poster winners:
Applications technologies, Materials innovation, Paintshop transformation. The people who enable these changes attend FOCUS. Join them. Join us.
Formulations. Applications. Measurement. Powder, Water, High(er) solids, Equipment and Facilities. How will the automakers use technologies in the future to hit ever-more-challenging quality and cost targets? Here’s where to find out.
Surveys each year cite this as a prime reason to attend. Meet with old friends, make new connections, reach out to people who can open doors for you. Give something and get something – the key to networking.
FOCUS is designed for what attendees tell us they value each year. Your leadership counts the cost. Take good ideas and connections “back to the bench.” Increase your team’s knowledge.
