MiningWorld: Russia April 2019
Global Victoria invites applications to participate in a mining and METS trade mission based around the MiningWorld Conference in Moscow.
The Trade Mission will commence with a day of market briefings, roundtables with key players in the Russian mining industry, business matching, and an evening networking event.
The following days will be spent at Mining World Russia, the region’s premier mining and METS expo. Global Victoria will provide a shared exhibition space in which a limited number of participating companies will be able to display company information, and network with visitors to the exhibition space.
An optional extension day to St Petersburg to explore further business opportunities, as well as collaborations with the Russian university sector, will follow the expo.
Why should you attend?
As a leading producer of bauxite, coal, copper, diamond, gold, iron ore, lead, nickel, PGM, potash, silver, uranium and other commodities, Russia provides a wide range of opportunities for Victorian METS seeking to access markets across the entire Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS).
Trade missions enable Victorian METS exporters to build market insights, explore opportunities, expand their networks, promote their capabilities and identify potential partners.
By participating in the mission, you will make important contacts from within the delegation, sharing expertise and exploring potential collaborations with other Victorian METS businesses who are on the same journey.
