The Death of National Manufacturing Week

Posted October 12, 2009 7:46 AM

National Manufacturing Week, a trade show for manufacturing industries held each year in Chicago, is no more. It used to fill 2.6 million sq.ft. of conference space. Now, it's held in a hall one-third the size in a Chicago suburb.

The preceding article is a "sneak peek" from Plant & Facilities Engineering, a newsletter from GlobalSpec. To stay up-to-date and informed on industry trends, products, and technologies, subscribe to Plant & Facilities Engineering today.
