"SpeedNews Conferences has a five-year history of informing aerospace manufacturing executives at our Aerospace Manufacturing Conference.  Now, as the common ground between aerospace and automotive continues to grow, we are adding our AeroAuto Conference -- the first event that will put leading aerospace and automotive manufacturing executives and decision makers face-to-face.  The Series will help executives to network, share information and discover each other's best practices, with a goal of improving operations.  We are thrilled to bring these groundbreaking events to Michigan, the global capital of the automotive industry," said Joanna Speed, Managing Director, A&D Events, Penton Aviation.

"Between talent, engineering and manufacturing, there are strong ties between the automotive and aerospace industries. Our collaboration with Aviation Week Network and SpeedNews Conferences will leverage these synergies," said Tony Vernaci, vice president, global business development for the Michigan Economic Development Corporation. "Michigan has always been the hub for the automotive industry, but with nearly 600 companies doing work in aviation, a world-class aeronautic engineering program and strong capabilities in R&D and manufacturing, Michigan is now becoming a hub for aerospace companies too. We are excited to showcase these strengths with Aviation Week Network in 2017."

The Fifth Annual Aerospace Manufacturing Conference will focus on all key manufacturing aspects including tooling, machining, equipment, components, electronics, advanced materials and manufacturing, engineering, and technological systems.  The agenda will cover what is really behind the hype of Internet of Things (IoT), a major theme across Penton impacting many industry sectors including aviation; as well as additive manufacturing, big data, and how the automotive and aerospace industries learn from each other.

Attendees of the first AeroAuto Conference will discuss the current situation, key issues, enabling technologies and outlook for the aerospace and automotive manufacturing industries; vehicle light weighting; emerging developments and coping with security requirements; supply chain best practices and lessons learned; additive manufacturing/3D printing and nanomaterials; vehicle health management systems and prognostics; passenger infotainment; and carbon emissions regulation.

Expected attendees of both events include Presidents, "C" level executives, and GMs; Production and Quality Control Professionals; Directors and VPs of Product Manufacturing; Engineers (Material, Mechanical, Electrical, Systems, Aerospace/Automotive, Industrial); Procurement and Supply Chain Professionals; Customer Support Professionals; Program Managers; Academia Professionals and Scientists; Investment Professionals and Financial Institutions; Sales and Marketing Professionals; Research Analysts and Consultants; Research and Development Professionals; and Real Estate / Economic Development Professionals.
