It is remarkable that the more we work to understand the market dynamics, especially in China, the more it seems we understand less. Industry participants are spending more and more time and money on market intelligence and analysis, but the more information available, the less clear some aspects seem to be.
The environmental restrictions, Supply Side Reform, China’s place in the international aluminum world, tariffs and quotas, – all these issues seem to cloud the picture, making it difficult for market participants to do their jobs.
AZ China’s 6th Biennial conference will bring clarity and insight to these issues. AZ China is carefully specifying the conference topics and questions, and selecting the best moderators and panellists to enable you to gain that clarity. We will be limiting the speeches to a minimum, and maximizing the use of Q&A panels. You can get your questions answered, and hear the answers from other questions.
In 2018, we are expecting a much larger number of Chinese industry participants, including very senior management people. We have invited industry and government leaders, and we are expecting a wide variety of participants from all around the world. Our conferences always attract delegates from North and South America, the Middle East, Russia, Europe and of course Asia, including India and Australia.
As always, we will allow plenty of time for client/supplier meetings, so you can not only get the latest information from the conference, you can check in with your counterparts.
Since our last conference, the market has gone through several volatile times. Our conferences are your way to stay on top of the issues.
