As the world focusses on decarbonization, Indonesia must increase the resilience of its minerals-based value chains, creating pathways that will be responsive to changing climate conditions.  If managed sustainably and responsibly, some of the benefits that could potentially accrue to resource-rich countries emerging from the decarbonization of minerals-based supply chains include the following: (i) net direct economic benefits (such as taxes and royalties); (ii) net indirect economic benefits (for example shared infrastructure development catalyzed through mine investments); (iii) climate change benefits; and (iv) community development benefits.

The continent of Europe is set to increase rapidly its demand for battery-reliant technology and goods in the consumer markets. As Europe-based OEMs and manufacturers consider their production schedules carefully, how can Indonesia align with the European Union’s policies for EVs, Drones, and its energy transition?

Battery technology is continuing to improve energy storage and transmission, but where manufacturers seeing the most radical changes? How might consumer demand increase downstream, and what pressure will that put on producers upstream? Are EVs, Drones, and Energy Storage devices close to proliferating the market?

• Developing a strategy for successful collaboration and partnerships from across the globe 
• Navigating European CBAM and US IRA tariffs and requirements   
• Growing in a bifurcated partnership landscape 
• Examining the barriers to investment  

As critical minerals and metals prices are fluctuating in the international marketplace, how are investors ensuring that trade can flow freely and efficiently into the future? What bi-lateral agreements are on the horizon? Where might there be closer alignment between public and private enterprise? What risks are different stakeholders looking to mitigate and hedge against in the current climate?

• Strategic overview of the battery market  
• Manufacturing update  
• Partnerships with key countries  
• The future of NMC vs. LFP 
• New technologies emerging across cathode and anode methodologies.   

While opportunity in the critical mineral and metals market is set to become even greater in the coming years, there is an urgent need to reduce the costs, complexity, and risks present in the supply chain. Learn from our experts as they share their approach to ESG, capital requirements, digital innovation, climate change, and technological change.

As the Indonesian mine continues to impact nickel supply internationally, what might we expect from the project in 2024 and beyond? An overview of the JV and the role of key partners today; Technological developments, and production outputs; The progress of the Weda Bay industrial park and its mineral processing, smelting, and production of EV batteries

As M&A activity gains momentum in Indonesia, there is a growing pipeline of VC and lower-middle-market delas, creating buoyancy in the private market. As the region opens its doors to more international institutional capital, what are the expectations of investors today? Is PE a better alternative to private Debt? What opportunities for co-investment are there on the horizon? Which areas of the critical minerals and metals industry are poised for growth?
