2026 Agenda Sessions

Beyond symbolism: Government-Industry alignment in practice

As competition for capital intensifies, symbolic engagement is no longer enough to unlock investment. This session brings together senior government leaders and mining CEOs to examine how alignment between public policy and private capital actually delivers results. The discussion will focus on what investors look for beyond political presence, how governments can translate strategy into bankable frameworks, and how industry and the state can align on timelines, risk allocation, and execution. Grounded in real examples, the session moves past rhetoric to explore how effective government–industry partnerships drive projects from intent to investment.
