IMFORMED is delighted to announce a new conference to its portfolio:
Salt Forum 2022
Grand Elysée Hamburg, 15-17 November 2022
The Forum will also incorporate a Salt Industry Training Seminar on Tuesday 15 November, supervised by world renown salt specialist Vladimir Sedivy, President, Salt Partners Ltd.
This vital industrial mineral, of which about 335m tonnes is produced worldwide and 50m tonnes exported by >50 countries, deserves a regular, well-organised conference, providing an international networking and knowledge sharing hub.
IMFORMED has stepped in to fulfil this requirement in light of the recent demise of the World Salt Symposium, and more recently, Roskill’s Salt Conference.
We welcome you to join us for a stimulating conference, intelligently programmed and expertly moderated, covering the key trends and developments, challenges, and influencing factors shaping world salt supply and demand.
