Frequently asked questions

Use the sections below to find practical information on the International Critical Minerals and Metals Summit: Indonesia 2026, including what your pass includes, how the co-located format works with CT Asia, and who to contact for specific enquiries.

Co-location with CT Asia 2026

Because the critical minerals and coal industries are converging around the same set of conversations. Indonesia’s industrial downstreaming agenda, the energy transition, and the battery supply chain are pulling miners, traders, processors, and investors from both sectors into shared strategic territory.

Co-locating the Summit with CT Asia in 2026 reflects that reality. Delegates from either event can engage with their own sector’s core agenda while gaining direct access to the conversations shaping the adjacent industry. For Indonesian miners increasingly active across coal and critical minerals, one trip to Bali now covers both.

The International Critical Minerals and Metals Summit: Indonesia 2026 runs from 27 to 30 September 2026 at the InterContinental Bali Resort, Jimbaran, Indonesia. The event spans four days, with registration and opening networking on 27 September, main conference sessions on 28 and 29 September, and a closing conference day on 30 September.

No. Both events are held at the InterContinental Bali Resort, Jimbaran. Conference rooms, exhibition space, and all networking areas are on-site at a single venue.

Any paying delegate of either event can attend sessions and networking at the other at no additional cost.
