Proceedings and Highlights
The Annual LMOP Conference and Project Expo was one of the most anticipated conferences of the year!

Attendees learned about the latest projects, technologies and financial incentives and once again the conference included technical presentations, exhibits, and a Project Expo. Listed below are the panels held at the conference and the speakers who presented.
