(Posted on 28/04/24)

The National Grain and Feed Association (NGFA) in the USA, Grain Elevator and Processing Society (GEAPS), and Grain Journal have announced that CONVEY’24 will be held again this year in Omaha, Nebraska, on July 23-25, 2024.

CONVEY‘24 is a unique opportunity for grain handling and processing employees and leaders to gain practical knowledge and training on real-world compliance issues, best practices, and emerging industry trends.

“We look forward to providing the same valuable education, access to world class vendors and networking opportunities in a user-friendly environment. We have upgraded our educational sessions since our last event in July of 2023 to give our attendees many new technical capabilities,” said Glen Gudino, president for GEAPS Media Group, publisher of the Grain Journal. “The Omaha area represents the heartland of U.S. grain handling and processing operations.”

One of the newest attractions to the 2024 CONVEY is DEGESCH America’s Recertification Program on Tuesday, July 23. Four CEU credits have been approved in Kansas, Colorado, Ohio, Michigan, Texas, Indiana, and Oklahoma.

“NGFA is proud to partner with Grain Journal and GEAPS for this year’s CONVEY, which includes expert-led sessions focused on a variety of safety, technology and operations topics as well as a robust trade show,” said Jess McCluer, NGFA senior vice president, safety and regulatory. “In a new offering this year, DEGESCH will provide a pesticide re-certification opportunity in conjunction with the conference on July 23. Between the educational sessions, re-certification program, trade show and expanded networking opportunities, the offerings at CONVEY ‘24 are sure to provide a well-rounded and dynamic experience for your whole team.”

The annual conference and tradeshow will kick off on Wednesday, July 24. While he’s been to Omaha many times, GEAPS Executive Director John Caupert said he is looking forward to returning for his first CONVEY.

“I hope you’ll join me in the second largest ethanol-producing state in the country for CONVEY‘24. GEAPS is excited to work with Grain Journal and NGFA to present this conference focused on safety—with a new twist this year—as we pay specific attention to new and emerging technologies deployed in grain handling and processing,” Caupert said.

For the upcoming event, speakers have already been confirmed to share their industry knowledge and provide insight into actionable solutions for attendees to implement at their facilities. A complete list of presentations and presenters can be found online at Conveyconference.com.
