According to organizers, the event aims to bring together retirees and future retirees from across North America to share experiences and discuss strategies for increasing retiree engagement within the union.

Participants can expect guest speakers, breakout sessions, and opportunities for networking with other IAM members. A special tour of NASA’s Kennedy Space Center is planned for Wednesday, October 22.
The registration deadline applies both to conference attendance and hotel accommodations.
