A global trade war in full swing, uncertainties around China’s economic future, slow demand for EVs, or a cyclical low in the Critical Minerals industry – the list of challenges the global economy is facing is long. 

Germany and Australia are both impacted by the current crisis, although in different ways. While Germany is assessing how tariffs might impact the domestic manufacturing industry, Australia is closely watching how a potential recession could affect the world’s demand for the wide range of minerals the Red Continent produces. 

In uncertain times, strong partnerships offer stability and opportunity. Australia and Germany, alongside the European Union, are poised to deepen an already strong alliance. In fact, the long-anticipated EU-Australian Free Trade Agreement could emerge as a key opportunity to unlock economic potential. 

At this event, experts from politics, research, and industry will come together to explore Critical Minerals—one of the most promising areas of collaboration between Germany and Australia—and inspire meaningful dialogue among all participants. 

Join the Ambassador of the Federal Republic of Germany to Australia, H.E. Beate Grzeski, researchers and mining & trade executives, including experts from SAP and Vulcan Energy Resources, for an exciting Forum hosted by the German-Australian Chamber of Industry and Commerce and SAP Australia.
