What makes you excited for FABTECH Canada 2024?
Max Ceron: Well, what makes me excited about Fab Tech 2024 in Canada. And Can Weld is that I've been in this industry for over 30 years from when the first time I picked up a stinger and started Welding when I was 17 to today as executive director to CWB. And what I love is seeing the people that I grew up with so many of the mentors that helped me get started to help me get in this chair. I mean, today and also the people that I've come up with that we're all, you know, uh a generation together growing in this industry. And the really exciting part, the part that makes me really giddy is helping the youth come in now watching those 1819 year olds watching those fresh graduates, those fresh welders and fabricators get into the industry and they show up to the show, many of them never attending something like this and seeing their eyes open to the world of technologies, innovations and intelligence, the strong creative power behind our industry and getting to see it firsthand, I still get giddy when I go out on the show floor and see all the people and get to run into my friends and make new friends and I think you should be too, don't miss out on these opportunities to be a part of Fab Tech Canada and Can weld 2024.
