Thank you to everyone who attended the 2024 SPESA Advancements in Manufacturing Technologies Conference!

​

Held at the California Market Center (CMC) in Los Angeles, the event brought together nearly 100 industry professionals, including suppliers, manufacturers, brands, and government agencies. Around 50% of the audience was made up of first-time SPESA attendees, and 50% was local to the L.A.-area. We hope that the people who came to the event — both the ones we knew and the ones we now know — left with new knowledge, new connections, and a new drive in their respective careers.
