The Additive Manufacturing Users Group (AMUG), Milwaukee, Wisconsin, announced that online registration is open for its 2023 AMUG Conference, which will be held March 19-23, 2023, in Chicago, Illinois. The AMUG Conference is a users’ event open to owners and operators of industrial additive manufacturing technologies used for professional purposes.

Mark Abshire, AMUG president said: “The AMUG conference is all about the users of additive manufacturing equipment. What makes it unique is the users plan, organize and manage all aspects of the conference, making it truly ‘For Users, By Users.’ ”

Additive manufacturing users share expertise, best practices, real-world results, challenges and application developments through dialogue from the stage and conversations during breaks, meals and networking activities. With a program that encourages participation from early in the morning to late at night, attendees can interact with their peers for more than 50 hours over the five-day event.

The AMUG Conference will include keynotes, panel discussions, technical sessions and hands-on workshops designed to help users get more from, and do more with, their additive manufacturing solutions. The conference agenda is expected to offer nearly 150 presentations and workshops.

One highlight of the conference program will be the 8th annual Innovators Showcase. The showcase is an on-stage interview with the feel of a fireside chat where attendees get to know an innovator in the industry and discover insights from that individual’s experiences. The conference program also includes the AMUGexpo, with over 140 participating companies, on Sunday, March 19, and Monday, March 20.

Through AMUG’s Innovators Award, Technical Competition and DINO Awards, excellence in applying additive manufacturing and contributions to the industry will be recognized. The five-day event also includes an off-site dinner gathering, networking receptions and catered meals.

The advanced, all-inclusive conference registration fee is $1,295 when signing up through January 6, 2023. For details and registration access, visit www.amug.com.

Companies interested in participating as exhibitors or sponsors also may use online registration. Representatives of the financial community and media should contact AMUG directly at www.amug.com/contact/.
