ProMat, the giant biennial supply chain and manufacturing conference and exhibition sponsored by industry organization MHI, comes to Chicago's McCormick Place April 3-6. To help attendees focus on the exhibits and educational sessions most useful to them, DC Velocity has put together an online overview of the show. The guide includes:
- a welcome message and show overview from MHI CEO George Prest.
- some ideas for things to do in Chicago.
- a rundown of show hours, the types of equipment that will be on display, the entertainment available (including a performance by comedian Dana Carvey), and how to pre-register. (Registration for exhibits and show-floor educational sessions is free.)
- descriptions of the keynote addresses.
- a description and map of show-floor exhibits.
- a list of theater, sports, and cultural events going on in Chicago when the show is closed.
