Invitation to Asia Steel 2018
Asia Steel 2018, the seventh International Conference will be held during 6-9th February, 2018 in
Bhubaneswar - the city of temples, Odisha, India. The Indian Institute of Metals and Tata Steel Ltd are
honoured to hold this International Conference for the second time (first time in 2003) since its inception
in 2000. Last time, the Asia Steel conference was held in Yokohama Japan in 2015.
Steel holds a unique position as an engineering material due to its applications in various fields and
expected to remain there in the future due to continued growth of automotive & infrastructure sector
worldwide. Although there are lots of developments on the material front but the steel is expected to
remain in its superior position due to its low cost & recyclability. The steel producing countries
therefore, need to deliberate the issues and challenges on continual basis to ensure a sustainable
future. Asia, being the largest producer of steel in the world has aptly taken the responsibility of holding
this conference at regular interval. Asia Steel Conference provides the right opportunity to bring steel
producers, researchers, academicians, equipment manufacturers and technology suppliers of the world
on a common platform to share new and innovative happenings.
Like the previous Asia Steel conferences, we are confident that Asia Steel 2018 in India will prove to be
equally enriching and meet the stated objectives.
We cordially invite you to participate in this international conference. We look forward to meeting you in
Bhubaneswar in the month of February 2018.
