The International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS) is back! This is the first time that IMTS has been forced to go on hiatus since World War II. It's taking place September 12–17 at McCormick Place in Chicago and will consist of 1.2 million square feet of exhibition space.

In this episode of MakingChips, Peter Eelman—the Chief Experience Officer at AMT—joins us to share what's happening at IMTS, how to book your hotel stay, how Chicago is safer than ever, and even shares what to do to enjoy your stay. Even better, we will be in the Grand Concourse Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Come by and say hi!
