CONEXPO
If implementing automated grade control can speed up your project delivery, or drone imaging can open up new creative avenues, or 3D printing can create entirely new opportunities, your project proposals are likely to get more attention. If you can learn about all the newest opportunities and ideas in one spot from people who understand your business, like you can at CONEXPO-CON/AGG, you can dramatically speed up that timeline.
Best of all, you have the opportunity to talk with your peers, and meet and share stories with others in your industry from around the world. There’s no better way to learn about new product features or understand the latest benefits than from
other contractors who work in your same field and know exactly what your challenges and opportunities might be.
“With all of the opportunities for the global construction industry in 2020, there has hardly been a more important time to experience and understand the latest technology at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2020,” said Dana Wuesthoff, Show Director for CONEXPO-CON/AGG. “With the global construction and materials handling businesses looking to continue expansion, and a growing demand for automated solutions, seeing what’s out there in person, and in a way that better facilitates deeper understanding, is crucial to continued business success.”
CONEXPO-CON/AGG’s comprehensive education program is the leading source for contractors, business owners, construction material producers, and end-users to obtain cutting-edge information for today’s economy and business models. Education is grouped into ten tracks to help
attendees find just the right topics that meet their needs. Areas include aggregates, asphalt, concrete, cranes, rigging and aerial lifts, earthmoving and site development, equipment management and
maintenance, business best practices, safety, technology solutions, and recruiting talent.
Returning for its second year is the award-winning CONEXPO- CON/AGG Tech Experience, featuring technology for modern mobility, sustainability and smart cities. Whether creating transportation systems that move products and people to meet tomorrow’s demands, designing buildings and cities with social, economic, and environmental impact in mind, or creating urban areas incorporating electronic data to efficiently manage assets and resources, The Tech Experience has a lot for everyone to learn.
That includes a competition called “The Future Cities Contest: The Next Generation of Cities,” and a discussion of trends in Liquid Cities (like Seattle), Crystal Cities (like Chicago and Miami) and Gas Cities (like London and Paris). The Tech Experience also features presentations including a “Crash Course on 3D Printing of Concrete Structures,” “Gadgets in Construction” and “Using Technology to Engage the Next Generation Workforce and Create New Jobs.”
