SUMMARY:Critical Materials Conference: Aerospace & Defence 2026
DESCRIPTION:Project Blue’s inaugural Critical Materials Conference: AEROSPACE & DEFENCE 2026  is coming to in Washington\, DC. \nThe conference will bring together stakeholders from across the aerospace and defence value chains to explore the critical raw materials enabling advanced manufacturing\, national security\, and next-generation technologies. \nMMTA Members are entitled to an exclusive 10% discount on the registration for this event. Log into your Member Benefits page for the discount code and use it when registering HERE \nWhat To Expect\n \nThe 2026 programme will feature in-depth presentations\, expert-led panel discussions\, interactive sessions\, and targeted networking\, designed to stimulate debate and foster collaboration across multiple value chains. \nAttendees can expect strategic insights spanning market intelligence\, technology shifts\, geopolitical risk\, supply chain resilience\, investment dynamics\, and cross-sector material requirements — with a particular focus on defence\, aerospace\, and electrification trends. \nIndustry participants from across mining\, materials processing\, technology\, manufacturing\, and finance will explore how critical material strategies are evolving under increasing pressure from defence priorities\, energy transition demands\, and global security considerations. \nNetwork with industry peers\, strengthen relationships\, and explore commercial opportunities at one of the sector’s must-attend events. \n \n was last modified:   by
