We’re excited to announce that registration is now open for the 2025 GAM Fall Leadership Conference, October 28 – 30 at The Hotel at Avalon in Alpharetta, Georgia!  

Formerly known as GAM’s “Fall Meeting”, the Conference will once again bring together manufacturing leaders, guest speakers and special guests for strategic discussions on the issues that matter most to industry. And as a bonus, we’ll be bringing the Conference to a resounding close with a very special 125th GAM anniversary party.  

The Hotel at Avalon offers a fantastic setting for the Conference with access to a large array of premium retail stores, restaurants and other services right outside the hotel’s front door.  

A comprehensive agenda will be provided asap, but here’s a quick overview of what you can expect: 

Tuesday, October 28: The Conference begins this evening with GAM’s famous “Welcome Reception” – our popular, traditional Conference kickoff event.  

Wednesday, October 29: Business Session #1 starts the day and will cover critical topics including energy, tariffs, and global military dynamics.  The day ends with a Georgia Power Company Executive delivering a keynote address at our Annual Chairman’s Reception and Dinner.  

Thursday, October 30: Business Session #2 features presentations on workforce development, government affairs and executive leadership. Then Thursday night, we’ll pull out all the stops to celebrate GAM’s 125th anniversary at a private residence near Avalon.
