Uniting steel producers, buyers, traders and logistics leaders in North America

For 38 years, the Tampa Steel Conference has brought the North American steel supply chain together in one room. Mills, service centers, manufacturers, traders, ports and the banks that finance them — three days of candid discussion on the issues shaping the market, hosted by Port Tampa Bay and Steel Market Update.

Why attend?

• Meet the whole supply chain, not one slice of it 
  Service centers, distributors, manufacturers, mills, ports, traders and financiers — 320 companies were represented in 2026.
• Reach decision-makers 
  Nearly six in ten attendees are VP-level or above. Conversations start at the right level.
• Hear it first-hand 
  Keynotes, fireside chats and panels with the executives and analysts actually setting direction in the market.
• Three days built for connecting 
  A golf tournament, a harbor cruise and receptions across the program — networking is designed in, not bolted on.
  

Who will you meet?

Tampa draws the full length of the steel value chain, with an unusually senior audience — close to six in ten attendees are VP-level or above, which means conversations start in the right place. You'll meet:

• Steel mills and producers — sheet, plate, long products and tube
• Service centers, processors and distributors — the largest single group in the room
• Manufacturers and OEMs — automotive, appliance, construction products, energy and agriculture
• Traders and importers working across North America and beyond
• Ports, rail, trucking and logistics providers moving steel to market
• Equipment and technology suppliers to the mills
• Banks, private capital, equity analysts and ratings agencies funding and following the sector
• Industry associations, consulting firms and market analysts
