Taking place in Washington, D.C., May 14-16, 2025, the Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM) brings together policymakers, construction organizations and equipment manufacturers for a multiday Celebration of Construction on the National Mall. Now in its second year, the event exhibits the industry’s latest innovations, workforce development efforts and work in sustainability. This year’s event will showcase advancements in emissions technology, alternative power sources, building materials and efficient construction methods, along with worker safety enhancements.
According to AEM, policymakers can expect authentic discussions on critical regulations with industry stakeholders and agency officials. Additionally, the association has extended an invitation to the general public interested in hearing from equipment manufacturers and other industry professionals.
The association notes that with policymakers in Washington set to debate several issues critical to off-road equipment manufacturers in the coming year, the event is an opportunity to educate those who impact the industry.
The event will highlight construction equipment, components and interactive displays between the Capitol Building and Washington Monument. The exhibition will span from the American History Museum and the Smithsonian Castle, with exhibitors highlighting the equipment used to Build a Stronger America, this year’s theme. Among the many manufacturers signed on to participate are Bobcat Company and Liebherr.
According to Mike Ballweber, president, Doosan Bobcat North America, “This event is a great opportunity for manufacturers to share how our equipment and innovations are building a stronger America.
