“Made In Wisconsin”
A Celebration Of Innovation In Materials Technology In Our State
April 2, 2008
Location: Pier Wisconsin, at Discovery World Museum, 500 North Harbor Drive, Milwaukee, WI 53202
New products, from the exotic to the mundane, routinely require improved materials and processing
innovations to achieve success in the marketplace. The ASM International - Milwaukee Chapter supports and
promotes materials innovation and education. It is proud to announce its 50th annual Bergmann Educational
Seminar – “Made in Wisconsin” – to be held on April 2, 2008. This seminar’s format encourages a forum for
dialog between materials engineers, product designers and innovators to address the unique applications for
their creations. The day will provide exposure to new technology, the personal driving forces behind technology
that bring it to fruition, and the diverse companies that support the investment and growth of materials-based
businesses that are MADE IN WISCONSIN yet celebrated worldwide.
