Join Us in California
The ISFA + ACMC Regional Summit & Training is coming to San Diego California for two days of networking, and industry discussion focused on the issues shaping the future of countertop and surface fabrication.
Connect with fellow fabricators, manufacturers, distributors, installers, and industry leaders from across the region as we tackle the topics affecting every shop today—from silica exposure and compliance to national licensing efforts, regulatory developments, and workforce readiness.
Your experience begins with a Welcome Reception, where attendees can build connections with peers and industry partners before the Summit Roundtable.
On Summit Day, you'll hear directly from ISFA, ACMC, industry experts, and regulatory representatives while participating in open discussions about the future of our trade. Bring your questions, share your perspective, and help shape the conversations impacting fabrication businesses across the country.
Whether you're a shop owner, manager, fabricator, installer, manufacturer, or supplier, this is your opportunity to stay informed, get involved, and ensure your voice is part of the conversation.
Register today and reserve your seat at the table.
Reception & Where to Stay
To support your business directly, we host an informal evening reception to connect with your peers, and a recommended host hotel so the whole community stays together.
- Welcome Reception: An informal evening reception — a relaxed chance to meet peers, manufacturers, and the ISFA/ACMC team before the working day begins.
- Recommended Host Hotel: We secure recommended hotels so attendees can stay, network, and travel together. Booking details are included in your registration confirmation.
Schedule subject to change. Our industry’s regulatory and legislative landscape is moving fast — from Cal/OSHA action to federal licensing and tariff developments — and this program may be updated to reflect the most current events affecting our trade. We will always bring you the latest, most relevant information available at the time of your summit.

| 2:00 PM - 3:15 PM | The Path to Nationally Enforced Licensing An update on licensing for your shop: H.R. 5437, tariffs, and our work to undo the false narratives — including the truth that the request in California was never to ban a product, but to ban unsafe fabrication practices. |
