Join milling professionals from across the Asia Pacific and around the world when they convene virtually from October 6-8 for the inaugural IAOM Southeast Asia Region Virtual Conference & Expo.
About the Conference
Grain milling professionals consistently find that the IAOM conference experience affords them an opportunity to enhance and advance their careers through comprehensive education programs, to connect with their industry peers at exciting networking events, and to develop relationships with vendors who offer the products and services they need to efficiently do their job.
During the pandemic, to ensure the safety of all attendees, we are taking our normal in-person Southeast Asia Region Conference & Expo to a virtual platform – one that will allow milling and allied trade professionals to gather for three days of education, networking and fellowship. Educational and technical programs presented are designed to assist millers in improving yields, productivity, customer satisfaction and safety. The programs are presented by seasoned professionals in the field who have experienced the issues affecting millers first-hand.
In addition, the event will also include a virtual Expo for milling professionals, featuring dozens of companies displaying their milling and processing equipment and related services using virtual tools.
Expo Hall
Our platform, Virtual Event Space, allows you to customize and brand your trade show booth so you can share product demos, videos, downloadable content and more. There is even an option to schedule a one-on-one video chat. From the comfort and safety of your desk, you can meet clients, launch and showcase new products, meet peers and more.
