This conference will explore supply sources and demand drivers to address the issues of supply security, pricing and transport challenges. The conference will feature speakers from across the value chain, including experts from coal producers and mining companies, buyers and traders, market and industry honchos, and infrastructure and logistics players.

With a 10 year history, the Coal Markets conference provides a forum for any professional involved in the industry in this region. The Asian coal industry has acknowledged its role in setting future directions alongside enabling business.

Offering 3 separate tracks and with a new focus on coal investment and trade, alongside an in-depth look at transportation and logistics projects, the event will spotlight supply security and reliability issues, as well as global investment hotspots and emerging supply markets from Asia to Africa.
