The annual CRU World Copper Conference Asia is an official event during Asia Copper Week, hosted in collaboration with CESCO and China Minmetals Corporation. Join us during this important week which attracts the most influential copper market executives for crucial discussions around the future state of the copper industry. 

Copper’s role in the green transition is no longer a future potential — it’s a present imperative. Yet, amid rising demand, copper smelters, miners, and traders face a profoundly challenging business environment, characterised by unprecedentedly low TC/RCs, growing political interference, volatile markets, and fast-changing technological dynamics. Nowhere are these tensions more visible — or more critical — than in Asia.

CRU's World Copper Asia convenes key stakeholders across the region to unpack these issues. From Beijing’s push for greater mining equity to the redefinition of smelting in tech-centric value chains, this event focuses on how Asian industry leaders are navigating and reshaping the global copper map. Through strategic panels, spotlight case studies, and expert insights, we explore the shifting axis of power, investment, and innovation across the copper value chain. Register now.
