Conference and Exhibit Show HighlightsThe MAX | 2020 Conference offers attendees a wide variety of education sessions and networking opportunities. Continuing the tradition established in the first Mid-America Conference in 1983, this year’s conference is no exception! Conference highlights include general session presentations on The Hyperloop, lessons in Emergency Management, and Keynote Speaker, Lauren Schieffer.

The Exhibit show will present firms and organizations providing materials and equipment services and information of value to Public Works practitioners. Numerous events will take place in the exhibit hall, including a Get Acquainted Party, prize drawings, breaks and a special Networking Social on Thursday afternoon!

Finally, the five host chapters of the Mid-America Conference will once again hold a joint National Public Works Week Luncheon to celebrate the role of Public Works in our national quality of life! Attendees at the Luncheon will be encouraged to tour the Exhibit Show after the event, giving exhibitors access to hundreds of additional public works practitioners!
