Overview

Held under the theme "Powering the Future", Copper to the World is Australia's premier conference dedicated to the copper industry. With global demand for copper expected to rise sharply as electrification accelerates, the event focuses on the innovations, investments, and partnerships needed to expand supply while improving productivity and sustainability across the value chain. South Australia—home to around 70% of Australia's known copper resources—provides the backdrop for discussions on the strategic importance of the metal for renewable energy, electric vehicles, power networks, and industrial decarbonisation.

The two-day programme combines keynote presentations, plenary sessions, breakout streams, roundtable discussions, an exhibition, and extensive networking opportunities. An Innovation Hour will also showcase emerging technologies and new ideas from across the mining ecosystem.

Attendance

Registration is open until 31 August 2026. Standard delegate rates are AUD 1,650 + GST for Austmine members and mining company employees, and AUD 2,050 + GST for non-members. For more information, visit the official event website.
