SUMMARY:2026 WA-Asia Business Forum: WA's Role in Asia's Energy Transition and Economic Future
DESCRIPTION:The WA-Asia Business Forum 2026 is a flagship event of the Western Australian Chinese Chamber of Commerce (WACCC). Held on Tuesday\, 4 August 2026 at Crown Perth\, the Forum convenes senior leaders from industry\, government\, and the international business community for a day of high-level discussion on the trade and investment relationship that continues to define Western Australia’s economic future: its engagement with Asia.\nThis year’s Forum is themed “WA’s Role in Asia’s Energy Transition and Economic Future”\, with the program anchored around two of the State’s most strategically significant sectors of engagement with the region: Mining and Energy. Both sit at the centre of the State Government’s Diversify WA priority framework\, and together they underpin Western Australia’s long-term commercial relationship with the Asia-Pacific. The program will examine the investment landscape across both sectors\, the government-to-government relationships that enable long-term supply agreements\, and the role of technology and artificial intelligence in reshaping how the State’s resources reach the region. \nThe Forum is where the conversations that shape Western Australia’s next decade of Asia-Pacific engagement take place. Its program combines keynote and panel discussions with structured networking\, giving delegates direct access to the industry and policy figures shaping these sectors. \nSince 1987\, WACCC has served as Western Australia’s longest-standing bridge between the State’s business community and Asia. The 2026 Forum is where that bridge continues to be built.

SUMMARY:MRIWA WEBINARS: CRITICAL MINERALS & TAILINGS VALORISATION SERIES
DESCRIPTION:Resilient Value Chains for the Energy Transition: A Circular Economy approach on Critical Battery Materials with Dr Stéphanie Riché & Dr Caroline Celle\nJoin us for our new international monthly webinar series where we speak with researchers from around the globe who are advancing the fields of critical minerals and tailing valorisation. \nThe energy transition is known to be intensive in critical raw materials and must not lead to replacing the current dependence on fossil fuels with a dependence on raw materials. It must be based on assumed sovereignty over the necessary materials and a quest toward resource efficiency at each stage of a circular economy of materials. This presentation will first illustrate how supply/demand and supply chain risk analysis can support national and European strategies. It will also illustrate how key-enabling technologies can facilitate the transformation of linear material value chains into circular ones. \nThe second part of this presentation will focus on the circularity of battery materials. The replacement of critical materials for battery development is strategically addressed by developing new post Li-ion chemistries without Ni\, Co\, Li\, and Cu\, such as Na or K-ion batteries. Additionally\, the reuse of recycled inputs from production scraps or end-of-life batteries is being explored. Intensive research is ongoing to improve the electrochemical performance of high-energy-density batteries and to develop low-cost\, low-environmental-impact batteries. After a brief introduction to CEA’s R&D facilities\, the presentation will focus on the reuse of purified black mass lixiviates for the synthesis of advanced cathode active materials (PCAM and CAM). It will also evaluate the impact of the nature of impurities on overall performance.
