The Arab Iron and Steel Union is proud to host the 17th Arab Steel Summit on October 14-15, 2024, at the Sheraton Doha Hotel in Doha, Qatar. This year’s conference takes on special significance in the context of the global economic, geopolitical, and climatic changes that are reshaping the iron and steel industry both in the Arab world and internationally. As a strategic and primary industry, iron and steel play a crucial role in efforts to enhance the mining sector’s contribution to the gross domestic product.

This summit will delve into the industry's pivotal impact on economic development, given its strong connections to key sectors like automotive manufacturing, shipbuilding, pipelines, the oil industry, food packaging, and water transport. The industry also significantly boosts employment, creating numerous direct and indirect job opportunities.

Running concurrently with the conference, the Arab Iron and Steel Union will also organize the "International Iron and Steel Exhibition 2024." This exhibition will provide a dynamic platform for industry stakeholders to explore modern technologies and technical solutions aimed at enhancing and diversifying productivity in the iron and steel sector. It will also serve as an ideal venue for producers, technologists, and companies engaged in the iron and steel trade to connect and collaborate.
