The conference is returning to China for the first time since 2019, and will bring together the global copper mining industry with smelter counterparts and other relevant stakeholders in the industry. Attendees will receive the latest market updates and have the opportunity to network with old friends, establish new relationships, and engage in key discussions on the future challenges and opportunities facing the regional and global copper markets.

The event will cover critical issues such as the new smelter capacity developments in ASEAN and their projected impact on trade flows. Factors limiting supply growth including country risk in the African copper belt and social challenges in South America. The event will also challenge key assumptions underpinning the long term outlook such as copper intensity in electric vehicles. CRU brings are wealth of insight and cohort of expert speakers with deep understanding of the copper concentrates, scrap and refined copper markets, which is even more important TC/RC negotiation focused event.
