Metals
The race for critical minerals is reshaping global supply chains.
Innovation Forum connects stakeholders across the value chain – from mining and refining to automotive, renewables, and battery manufacturing – to address sustainability challenges amid surging demand and geopolitical uncertainty.
Our work in metals
We connect the full critical mineral value chain from mining, processing and refining to automotive, electronics and renewables. We assess how business can build capacity and resilience in critical mineral supply, with a focus on the opportunities in sustainable sourcing to manage risk, build resilience and drive business value.
Supply resilience
Critical mineral supply chains are at a critical juncture. We examine how business can navigate uncertainty and align actors across the value chain while securing sustainable, long-term access to critical minerals.
Net zero transition
How can the mining industry balance the growing demand for energy transition minerals, while significantly reducing emissions? We address this complexity and explore the low carbon innovations that can decarbonise mineral supply chains and enable a net zero transition.
Social impact
From artisanal mining to indigenous rights, we assess the leading business approaches to map, monitor and manage human rights risk across sourcing landscapes.
Circular metals
What does a roadmap to circularity look like in critical minerals? We explore how to integrate circular principles across business functions and how to increase capacity and uptake in recycled materials.
