The BIR conference is slated for May 29-31 in Beijing, China.
Hickson is the global strategist for basic materials and as such responsible for global sector analysis and the coordination of global mining and metals research.

Following Hickson’s presentation, the Ferrous Division will have a panel discussion with the participation of high-ranking industry and media representatives based in China and in other key areas world-wide will then give the opportunity to dwell on questions related to the Chinese market and other hot topics and involve the audience in a Q&A session.
