The Stone Fabricator's Alliance held another successful educational workshop at Bluewater Surfaces in Wilmington, NC.

Building off the momentum from a technical event for fabricators in the beginning of the year, CaraGreen and ROCKin’teriors partnered with GranQuartz for a second Technical Summit in Raleigh, NC, in the beginning of September.

The Zoller Inc. Open House and Technology Days drew manufacturing professionals from across the U.S., Canada and Mexico to the company's headquarters in Ann Arbor, MI, to explore solutions to enhance efficiency.

The Philadelphia Phillies and NEST, the pioneer of integrated facilities management, joined forces to launch the Skilled Trades All-Star Program, a dynamic initiative aimed at guiding Philadelphia-area youth towards promising careers in the skilled trades.

Numerous global pavilions featured tile, stone and equipment displays from the United States, Italy, Spain, Brazil, Turkey, Portugal and beyond. 

Women in Stone and other industry women's groups have partnered with Coverings to launch the Galvanize Women's Lounge at the 2024 edition next month in Atlanta, GA.

The fabricator-focused programming included educational sessions about the importance of safety, shop efficiency and the power of technology, along with plenty of leisure time to network and enjoy the island destination.

The one great thing about all my trips to trade shows and other industry events is it keeps me up-to-date on current hot topics for fabricators, as well as product and design trends.
