MANAGEMENT UPDATE CONFERENCE 2026

The concept behind PMPA'S Management Update Conference is to "update" the audience on issues of concern to owners and managers of small and mid-size metalworking companies. Program topics and speakers are selected by the Update Committee, comprised of member company owners and senior managers.

Group meals and receptions are included on the program to further the naturally occurring networking and sharing of information which is a hallmark of PMPA members.

Plan on joining us in the beautiful city of Charlotte at the Omni Charlotte Hotel. Check out the program schedule and line-up of speakers.
