The industry has proven itself committed to applying new technologies, and I found my collaborators in steel to be exceedingly innovative and open-minded, and also very friendly! I have also found AIST to be an incredible resource for opportunities to enhance my network. They are one of the best professional societies for these opportunities, and also for the incredible support they provide for collaboration within the industry.
