Symposia allows you to hear the latest industry knowledge and methods before it’s available in popular literature. Authors explain how their work will help advance and provide innovative technologies to the coating and corrosion industries and/or introduce new information to the existing body of literature. A technical paper is required and will be published in the conference proceedings.
