COVID-19 Virus: Ensuring the health and safety of our attendees, exhibitors, partners & staff is our top priority. Fluorine Forum 2021 was planned to be in-person, though circumstances dictate an online version prevails.
Intelligently programmed | Expertly moderated
The only conference you’ll need to attend if you’re in the fluorine raw materials business
Supporting Partners
Although we share our delegates’ disappointment that we are unable to run our usual high quality in-person event in Hanoi this year, as we were in 2020, we remain determined to provide an alternative platform for knowledge sharing, discussion, and networking.
Therefore, IMFORMED is announcing Fluorine Forum 2021 ONLINE, Wednesday 20 October 2021. Book now to secure your place!
You can join us from wherever you are working, network with fellow attendees, have access to presentations, as well as a full audio and video recording of the Forum which you can peruse at your leisure. See what our attendees thought of last year’s online Forum below.
The conference will be essential to all those active or with an interest in the fluorine mineral supply chain, from developing and mining sources, through logistics and processing, to end use applications. Don’t miss out, book now.
