MEA Manufacturing Symposium - Post-Event Wrap Up
Summary
  The meeting, which was held at the Downtown Doubletree Hotel in Dayton from August 9th-11th, 2005, drew 133 delegates from 10 nations. The conference objective was to focus attention on the formidable challenges of mass-producing affordable, reliable Membrane Exchange Assemblies for PEM fuel cell stacks. It featured presentations from government, university and industry speakers, exhibits, posters and networking opportunities. This site features highlights of the three-day event, including presentations and photos.
