PLYMOUTH, MI — As mentioned in its theme for this year, “On The Road To New Technologies,” the FOCUS Conference has hit the road and moved to a new location that should be more user friendly to all attendees, from the speakers to the industry suppliers and the audience for this year’s conference. The Detroit Society for Coatings Technology (DSCT) organizes the Annual FOCUS conference, which is in its 44th year. This year’s conference will be held on May 9, 2019, at The Inn at St. John’s in Plymouth, Michigan.
Over the past 43 years since the conference started in 1975, the industry has undergone many changes, but none of those may be more exciting than what are we are seeing today. With everything from environmental improvements, application efficiency and appearance improvements to technology improvements to keep up with future vehicle technology, there is a lot of activity in the design and development areas as 2019 is just beginning.
