24th Intl. Aluminium Conference
The premier international forum for understanding industry dynamics and uncovering market potential
24th International Aluminium Conference
Date: 14 Sep 09 - 16 Sep 09
Venue: Hilton, Dusseldorf, Germany
For anyone involved in aluminium, the best opportunity to gauge the timing and strength of recovery in the global industry is Metal Bulletin Events‚ 24th International Aluminium Conference taking place in Dusseldorf, at the heart of the European aluminium processing and consuming marketplace. This annual event regularly attracts some 600 aluminium executives from around the globe and all segments of the industry - from bauxite miners and alumina refiners, to smelters, recyclers, fabricators, end-users, traders, bankers and service companies. It is the time and place for the industry to meet and discuss what is influencing the market and shaping prices - and of course to start tying up business for next year.
With the precipitous decline in aluminium market fortunes in the past months, this year‚s conference will be all the more key to providing the industry with a clear view of where it is headed as we move towards 2010. While it appears the market has bottomed, 2009 is going to be a year of further contemplation and constraint as producer cutbacks - enforced or voluntary - eat into inventories and consumer confidence starts to return - most forecasters agree, later in the year. September will prove a pivotal time in the aluminium industry calendar. If you want to be sure of hearing the latest experts views and news, register now to secure the best rates for the aluminium industry`s premier international forum for debate and networking.
Register before 11th May 2009 and save Euro 450
