Co-located with — DRC-Africa Battery Metals Forum Building Momentum Towards the 2027 Forum
The third DRC–Africa Battery Metals Forum brought together government leaders, industry experts, investors and project developers to advance beneficiation, downstream manufacturing and sustainable industrial growth across the DRC’s critical minerals sector.
Building on this momentum, the 2026 DRC Critical Minerals & Industrialisation Webinar Series will keep the industry connected and continue the conversations needed to transform the DRC’s mineral wealth into long-term industrial value.
The webinar series will explore:
- Beneficiation, localisation and downstream manufacturing
- Emerging projects and commercial opportunities
- Policy, financing, energy and infrastructure requirements
- Partnerships needed to advance investment and project delivery
- The DRC’s position within regional and global critical minerals value chains
Insights from the series will help inform the agenda and discussions for the DRC Critical Minerals & Industrialisation Forum, returning to Kinshasa in 2027. Dates will be announced soon.
