The new commercial meeting point for the US aluminum market
AMU Aluminum Summit is a new, commercially focused conference designed for the US aluminum market at a time of heightened trade uncertainty, changing procurement priorities, and growing pressure for better downstream market visibility. By connecting the aluminum industry with a broader mid- and downstream industrial metals audience, the event reflects the way business is actually done across shared end markets such as automotive, construction, appliances, packaging, and transport.
Join us in Atlanta from August 24th to the 26th to be part of the conversation.
Built around real steel–aluminum demand synergies, AMU Aluminum Summit combines with the market leading SMU Steel Summit and provides a distinctive platform for buyers, primary producers, processors, traders, manufacturers, service providers, and market participants whose commercial decisions are shaped by both metals. With a strong focus on tariffs, trade policy, scrap and recycling, investment, sales, sourcing, and downstream demand, the conference is designed to support the commercial, informational, and relationship needs of the market.
Taking place ahead of contract negotiation season, AMU Aluminum Summit offers a timely opportunity to build relationships, test market sentiment, and open business-critical conversations when pricing, procurement, and sales positioning matter most. Backed by CRU’s objective insight and market credibility, AMU Aluminum Summit is positioned to become an important new addition to the US industrial metals calendar.
