Indianapolis played host to MCAA’s 2024 Converge meeting, a pivotal event bringing together Manufacturers, Suppliers and Contractor industry leaders under one roof. Held from June 24-26 at the home of the Indianapolis Indians, this year’s meeting marked a significant convergence of ideas, innovations, and collaborations aimed at shaping the future of mechanical contracting, through executive-to-executive meetings. Each attendee worked hard to prepare for this meeting through completing profiles and pre-meetings to arrive and have more meaningful conversations in person.
The group was welcomed with a reception & dinner at Victory Field on Monday night. Many took part in batting practice on the field in the scorching heat, with some even making it over the fence. Tuesday was a busy day behind closed doors, with up to twelve 45-minute meetings, networking continued between meetings and at dinner. Wednesday concluded with a half-day of the remaining 45-minute meetings.
MCAA’s 2024 Converge not only delivered a strategic, excutive-to-executive, engaging experience but left the members with smiles and key business take-a-ways.
