'Captain America,' Bustling Trade Show Highlight BOILER 2022's Opening Day
Scott Lynch, president of the American Boiler Manufacturers Association (ABMA), peered into the crowd, attempting to make eye contact with the 900-plus attendees filling the seats before him. Flanked by dozens of blue and green banners decorated with the BOILER 2022 logo, the moment had finally arrived.
“So, this is only about seven years in the making,” Lynch joked, triggering a chuckle throughout the conference hall. “Honestly, this event came to focus from a strategic planning session over five years ago. A lot of hard work went into this from the ABMA staff and a whole lot of volunteers. We have more than 80 companies exhibiting in the expo, which is really exciting.”
