Milwaukee was the host city for the IndustryWeek 2008 Best Plants Conference, which featured seven plant tours, more than 50 speakers and nearly 800 participants. The conference celebrated both the achievements of the past, particularly by honoring the 10 recipients of the 2007 IW Best Plants Awards, as well as the trailblazing work being done to create a culture of continuous improvement in facilities throughout North America.
The slideshows below offer some visual highlights from the conference and related activities; you can also see more photos, as well as listen to several of the keynote addresses, at the links below. The IW 2009 Best Plants Conference will be held April 27-29, 2009, in Nashville, Tenn.
