SUR/FIN® is the surface finishing industry's premier event where professionals from around the world share ideas and experiences to solve surface finishing and manufacturing problems while improving productivity. SUR/FIN® 2009, organized by the National Association for Surface Finishing, provides the best venue in which to explore the state-of-the-art technology, gain insight on practical applications for surface finishing as well as evaluate means to improve surface finishing operations.

Bold ideas. Best practices. New product innovations. Networking and educational opportunities. These are just some of the big things you can expect from SUR/FIN 2009, North America's premier surface finishing event. Whether it's SUR/FIN's first-class technical conference or it's highly acclaimed automotive, aerospace and management sessions, you'll be empowered with knowledge that you can immediately apply back in the office or on the shop floor. What's more, this year's host city is Louisville, recently named by Manufacturers' News magazine as the 'Southeast's leader in manufacturing. And it's all within an easy drive or direct flight to the automotive heartland--strategically located near some of the world's largest OEMs and applicators. So come to Louisville and be a part of something big.

KEYNOTE SPEAKER FOR SUR/FIN 2009
