Fastmarkets Battery Raw Materials Shanghai 2026

Shangri La Qiantan, Shanghai, China

March 24-26, 2026

The event provides rare access to Chinese producers, battery manufacturers, OEMs and policymakers who do not typically engage outside China. For manganese ore, alloy, chemical and trading companies, it offers direct insight into downstream battery and EV demand, procurement behaviour and policy signals shaping the Chinese market. Live English and Mandarin translation supports all discussions.

For the first time in Shanghai, Fastmarkets has secured a complimentary EV production line site visit, offering behind the scenes access to NIO and SAIC Volkswagen, alongside a briefing from the Jiading District Government on the local automotive and industrial ecosystem.

This exclusive site visit is complimentary for registered conference delegates, but availability is extremely limited. IMnl members are encouraged to secure their discounted ticket early using code IMnI25 to guarantee a place on the tour.

Delegates also receive access to a series of complimentary, limited capacity activities focused on commercial decision making.

Two expert led workshops cover risk management strategies for volatile commodities markets, including price exposure, cost structures and procurement risk across battery raw materials. These sessions are particularly relevant for manganese producers, alloy manufacturers and traders managing price volatility and contract risk. Places are allocated on a first come basis.

The conference also includes two evening networking receptions and dedicated networking time, creating repeated opportunities for one on one engagement with Chinese buyers, processors, OEMs and international market participants.

All additional activities are included with registration. Capacity is limited.
