Conference Objectives

Small and mid-size suppliers – machine shops, special processors, assemblers, and more – are particularly affected by the industry consolidation and global competition. We’re competing against a variety of competitors for less business with changing customer expectations. We have to set our sights on more than survival.

Learn from suppliers about how to successfully compete and win new market share
Learn from customers about what it takes to win new business in the new supply chain
Learn from industry leaders about how to adapt to the new aerospace competition
