International Critical Minerals and Metals Summit: Indonesia
Sep 24-26, 2025
The demand outlook for nickel, cobalt and manganese from the battery sector presents an enormous opportunity for Indonesia. Its importance to the future supply of nickel into the battery market is unquestionable and its emergence as a significant global supplier of cobalt continues to gather momentum. For manganese the potential is enormous. It is also anticipated that Indonesia will become a primary source of global primary aluminium capacity growth in the future, whilst Indonesia’s vast tin reserves are more crucial than ever in bridging the anticipated supply gap.
