Every fall, AEM invites its 1,100-plus members to renew their partnership and involvement with the association for the coming year.
For many, this annual decision is more than a transactional checkbox—it’s a strategic investment in the future of their business and the broader non-road equipment manufacturing industry. And for those who want to get a head start on 2027 to unlock special pricing and gain first access to valuable opportunities for next year, special promotions are available through Oct. 31.
“Membership renewals for 2027 are officially open from now until the end of the year, and members are encouraged to commit to being a part of a roster of 1,100-plus member companies that speak with one voice to move the industry forward,” said AEM Vice President of Membership Paul Flemming. “AEM membership offers a robust suite of benefits designed to help companies grow, connect, and lead. From exclusive access to business intelligence and regulatory updates to high-impact advocacy and workforce development initiatives, we’re proud to deliver our members tangible value across multiple service areas.”
AEM members can gain several benefits by completing their renewal by Oct. 31:
- Saving on an upgraded listing in the new AEM Member Directory – Members can upgrade a listing at a discounted rate to add a logo and other enhanced features.
- Being an AEM Momentum Partner – Members can unlock certain sponsorship opportunities, secure discounted pricing on other add-ons, and gain increased year-round visibility (only 10 spots are available).
- Secure the lowest price on registration for the 2027 AEM Annual Conference – The premier gathering of the AEM members serving the non-road equipment manufacturing industry is set for Nov. 9-11, 2027, in Frisco, Texas.
- Save on a targeted digital advertising campaign – Members can receive discounted pricing on a campaign that reaches a target audience after they visit AEM.org.

The AEM Membership Value Proposition
AEM is committed to building upon past accomplishments and executing a Strategic Plan that will ensure the long-term future of the association. In doing so, AEM has established three main goals to guide its activities, initiatives, and services in the near term:
- Unify, lead, and champion the industry to advance its shared priorities
- Drive member prosperity through increased engagement with AEM’s portfolio of resources
- Leverage collective member intelligence to accelerate data-driven solutions that empowers member company growth
All AEM’s core services strive to help the association work toward achieving these goals, and they reflect the needs, wants, and expectations of AEM members. With that in mind, AEM member company representatives are encouraged to take full advantage of what’s offered and remain as engaged as possible throughout the year to get the greatest possible return on their investment in the association.
“An AEM membership will only take your organization as far as the benefits it enjoys,” said Flemming. “And by keeping it front of mind, your organization can ensure it secures the greatest possible return on its investment in – and involvement with – association efforts and priorities.”
Memberships not paid by December 31 will expire in 2027.
