The inaugural James B. Beam Institute Industry Conference welcomes farmers, representatives and staff from local and regional distilleries, secondary industries and tourism for a great day of continuing education. This one-day bourbon-focused conference is an educational program offered by the institute at the University of Kentucky.

Collaborating with the Kentucky Distillers’ Association, we identified key industry issues to plan a full day of engaging topics, industry vendors and exhibits. You will also learn about new industry developments.

You will enjoy an interactive lunch block where you may network with vendors and view exhibits and posters. Breakfast, lunch and snacks are included with your registration.
