Summer in Chicago is bratwurst, deep dish pizza, lakeshore beaches, and laughs with good friends.

Come join us for these things and more as SUR/FIN returns to Rosemont from June 7–9.

The technical conference program, along with Blum lecturer Dr. Judy Runge of Apple, will bring the latest in surface finishing science and technology. On the exhibit floor you will see the newest products and developments, reconnect with colleagues, and meet newcomers.

Keynote speaker Kim Tress of Stellantis will bring us an outlook on automotive trends and their impact to our industry, while keynote speaker Julie Holmes will guide us through innovation in times of change. 

The Chicago Midwest Chapter will host an industry night event with a Chicago Blues band and refreshments, also within walking distance of the convention center — and stumbling distance back to the Hyatt. 

In short, SUR/FIN 2022 returns to Chicago in the summer in walking distance from hotels, food, and entertainment, with great technical conference topics, insightful speakers, and post-covid reconnection with the surface finishing industry.  This is your industry. Come be a part of it!
