Achieving Circularity in the Metals and Mining industry

Circularity has become an important factor for driving business opportunities and spearheading innovation across different sectors. Industries need to reinvent their entire value chains, due to increased scarcity of materials and environmental impact. Metal and mining industries face several challenges on how to optimize resource usage and close the loop of their operations (extraction, processing, logistics, and waste). In this session, we want to focus on how circularity measures can amplify operations towards achieving sustainable goals.

Join our speakers John Holmes, SVP at DRA Nexus and Felix Schmitz, Head of Sustainability at Kloeckner in this vivid discussion.

In this aim10x Roundtable, members will participate in an interactive discussion on how circularity in the value chain for metals and mining can be achieved. We will discuss:

1. Current challenges and opportunities in these sectors

2. Is Green Steel a myth?

3. Examples of how sustainability and circularity are achieved

4. Criteria to achieve climate goals

5. Technology’s role in achieving circularity

This roundtable will take place on February 15th, 10:30AM CT (US) and 5:30PM CET (EU).

What is a roundtable?

A roundtable is an informal knowledge-sharing session that brings together a diverse group of professionals to share their knowledge, discuss their challenges, learn new insights, and make new connections. We keep the group small (less than 12 participants) to give everyone the space to participate and contribute in deeper-dive discussions.

Why should you register?

If you’re missing the collaboration and conversational elements from a webinar, then a roundtable might be a great option for you. Be ready to deep-dive into different topics related to digital transformation and have a high-quality discussion with your peers. We host both industry-specific and cross-industry roundtables so there’s always a topic to interest you.

Who is it for?

Supply chain and sustainability professionals in the field of raw materials, metals and mining, circular economy professionals

We keep the agenda simple:

1. Introductions
2. Setting the scene
3. Group discussion
4. Networking

During our roundtable Achieving Circularity in the Metals Industry John Holmes, Senior Vice President at DRA Nexus spoke about the importance of circularity, thinking about sustainable value chains, and how to cultivate cross-sector cooperation within the mining industry. The group also discussed: 

• How to optimize resource usage and close the loop of their operations
• How circularity measures can amplify the ability to achieve sustainable goals

Listen to John share the lightbulb moment when individuals realize how many products are produced through mining processes.
