THIS OCTOBER 9-11 IN LAS VEGAS
Join more than 650 exhibitors and over 4,500
attendees at the 2023 International Fastener Expo at
Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, NV this October 9-11. The
longstanding and largest B2B Fastener event in North
America will once again convene for 3 days of networking,
education, and inspiration.
Morgan Wilson, Show Director, enthusiastically
announced details for the upcoming show, “We will
have over 100 new exhibitors participating at IFE this
year, 35+ from North America and 65+ internationally.
IFE is focused on growing and diversifying our event
to better serve the entire industry. We’re excited to be
building upon our specialty fasteners, industrial products,
machinery, technology, and other categories.”
Beyond the Exhibit Hall there are various networking
events that offer industrial professionals the opportunity
to connect with their peers. Whether you prefer to hit
the links at the IFE Golf Tournament at the Bali Hai Golf
Course on Monday, October 9, or head to the Daylight
Pool at Mandalay Bay for the fun-filled Welcome Reception
Party that evening; there is plenty of special networking
events at IFE 2023!
Before the official opening of the Exhibit Hall on
October 10, keynote speaker, Jake Hall, the Manufacturing
Millennial, will take to the stage to dive into the topics of
technology, innovation, and how to get your current and
future workforce excited about these advances in the
industry. The education continues with numerous sessions,
panels, and Fireside Chats. This new Fireside Chat format
is an engaging discussion that takes place in the IFE
Lounge and is driven by interactive conversations, real-life
experiences, as well as Q&A. Throughout the education
provided at IFE 2023, attendees will learn about topics like:
