Michael Feuz to Headline ABMA’s 110th Annual Convention 2027 as Industry Looks Ahead
Economic outlook keynote to highlight manufacturing trends, business cycles, and strategic planning for the global brush industry.
The American Brush Manufacturers Association (ABMA) has confirmed that Michael Feuz, Principal and Economic Consultant at ITR Economics, will deliver the keynote address at the 110th ABMA Annual Convention, scheduled to take place from March 23–26, 2027, at the Westin Kierland Resort in Scottsdale, Arizona.
Recognised as one of the brush industry’s premier networking and educational events, the annual convention brings together manufacturers, machinery suppliers, raw material providers, distributors, and industry professionals from across North America and beyond.
Keynote to Focus on Manufacturing Outlook
Feuz will present “Prospering Through the Cycle” during the ABMA Educational Institute on Wednesday, March 24, at 9:30 a.m.
The session will examine the current manufacturing landscape and the economic forces expected to shape business performance in the coming years. According to ABMA, attendees will gain practical insights into navigating economic cycles, improving strategic decision-making, and identifying opportunities for long-term growth despite changing market conditions.
With many manufacturing sectors expected to experience moderate growth and continued economic uncertainty through 2027, the presentation is expected to provide valuable guidance for business owners, executives, and operational leaders across the brush manufacturing supply chain.

The 2027 convention will once again provide delegates with opportunities to exchange market insights, discuss manufacturing challenges, and strengthen relationships across the industry.
