On behalf of the Forging Industry Association members and staff, I’d like to introduce you to the inaugural issue of FIAMaga zine. We are very excited to present this new, quarterly publica tion to you, and we hope that it serves as a key resource as the forging industry continues to grow and evolve. We developed FIAMagazine with the intention of providing the most up-to-date information on the technologies, trends, and thought-provoking topics that are shaping our industry. From materials and processes to marketing and safety, it is our goal to keep you on the pulse of what’s hot and trending in forging and deliver it in a format that is interesting and engaging. This issue of FIAMagazine features articles on automation, digital marketing, a spotlight on FIAmember company Trenton Forging, upcoming industry events and a Washington update given by FIA’s new lobby firm. It’s an exciting time for forging and we’d like to showcase all of the great things that are happening in this new publication. We hope you enjoy the premier issue of FIAMagazine, and we look forward to receiving your feedback. Sincerely, JamesWarren
