Adhesives and Sealants Industry Leaders Gather in Florida
The Adhesive and Sealant Council’s annual Executive Leadership Conference brought together executives from top companies to discuss important industry topics.
From October 15-17, adhesives and sealants industry executives from the top companies came together in Naples, Fla., for the annual Adhesive and Sealant Council (ASC) Executive Leadership Conference. The event kicked off the evening of October 15 with an opening reception and dinner, where attendees gathered to network and enjoy the warm southern Florida weather.
Tuesday, October 16, began with a networking breakfast, followed by a program overview from Chuck Williams, ASC chair. Next, Stephen Melman, director of economic services at the National Association of Home Builders, gave the talk on “Housing and Economic Outlook after Tax Reform.” Melman reported that growth is currently strong, with 2.7% predicted for next year, but the 2017 tax cuts President Trump implemented will likely cause growth to sputter by 2020.
