SUMMARY:Fastmarkets Global Lithium\, Battery & Critical Materials
DESCRIPTION:MMTA member discount\nMembers of the Minor Metals Trade Association are eligible for a special 15% registration discount.\nPlease log into your Member Benefits page for the discount code and use it when registering HERE \nWhy this event matters: \nMinor metals markets are being pulled directly into battery\, energy storage and critical minerals procurement cycles\, with pricing\, availability and trade flows increasingly shaped by policy\, localisation requirements and downstream contracts rather than spot fundamentals alone. \nFastmarkets Global Lithium\, Battery & Critical Materials is one of the few global events where pricing\, trade and procurement discussions happen in the same room as producers\, traders\, OEM buyers\, energy storage developers and policymakers. \nThe value lies in understanding: \n\nWhere real demand is forming for manganese and other minor metals across batteries\, energy storage and industrial applications\nHow U.S. and allied-country policy is influencing trade routes\, sourcing decisions and supplier selection\nWhat buyers are locking in contractually ahead of the next procurement and pricing cycles\nHow volatility\, localisation and supply security are feeding into pricing mechanisms and negotiations\n\nWith over 1\,000 senior participants from more than 40 countries\, the event provides direct exposure to the commercial drivers behind price formation and long-term offtake\, not just technical or academic discussion. \nEvent overview \nA flagship Fastmarkets event bringing together senior decision-makers across mining\, processing\, trading\, battery materials\, energy storage\, government and finance\, with a strong emphasis on market outlooks\, pricing dynamics and commercial decision-making. \n  \n was last modified:   by
