AEM’s Product Safety & Stewardship Conference is the place to be for the latest insights surrounding product liability, safety design standards, and the regulatory landscape of the equipment manufacturing industry. Be sure to mark your calendar for the 2026 Product Safety & Stewardship Conference and Liability Seminar, which is set to take place in Kansas City, Missouri, from April 27-30, 2026.
Registration for the event opens on December 15, 2025.
More than 300 industry professionals came together for the 2025 Product Safety & Stewardship Conference and Liability Seminar in Nashville this past April, as heavy equipment manufacturers, value chain partners, and subject matter experts came together to harmonize ideas and gain industry insights.
The 2026 Product Safety & Stewardship Conference will explore emerging industry topics, such as cybersecurity, artificial intelligence (AI), electrification, technical communications, and chemical compliance, ensuring a comprehensive view of the ever-evolving product safety landscape.
The Liability Seminar, taking place the day after the conference, includes a live mock trial – an engaging, behind-the-scenes look at litigation strategy in action. Led by a team of accomplished attorneys, the event offers fresh insights and practical takeaways to help stay ahead of evolving legal challenges in the equipment manufacturing industry.
