Future Minerals Forum 2027
About the event
The Future Minerals Forum 2027 is a government-backed mining and minerals conference in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, at the King Abdulaziz International Conference Center. Convened under the Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources, FMF addresses exploration, processing, critical minerals, and supply-chain security as Saudi Arabia scales its mining sector as a third economic pillar.
Operators, investors, equipment OEMs, and ESG advisors attend to track auction rounds, geological surveys, downstream processing investments, and cross-border cooperation on battery metals and industrial minerals.
Energy transition and mining strategy
FMF sits at the intersection of energy transition materials, industrial policy, and capital allocation. Pair attendance with Motaded’s Energy sector research and Investment Law in the Motaded Library. New legal entities and joint ventures often coordinate licensing through MISA.
