Conference background
Against the backdrop of accelerated global energy transformation and carbon neutrality goals, the importance of key battery raw materials such as nickel, cobalt, and lithium has become increasingly prominent.
Geopolitical tensions, uneven resource distribution, international trade policy fluctuations, and the rapid expansion of the new energy resource industry chain have profoundly affected the global supply pattern and price system of these materials.
Building a more stable, transparent, and efficient supply chain system has become a core issue of concern to the entire lithium battery industry.
SMM Lithium Battery Raw Materials Conference 2025 (Li-ION BATTERY China 2025) will be held in Xiamen from October 20 to 21, 2025. The conference will focus on the market dynamics and price mechanisms of nickel, cobalt, and lithium resources from a global perspective, comprehensively analyze changes in the international policy environment, resource supply and demand mismatches, and explore opportunities for industrial transformation brought about by battery material technology innovation.
Organized by Shanghai Metals Market(SMM), this conference will release market trend analysis and price analysis of nickel, cobalt, and lithium raw materials to help companies keep up with industry trends and grasp changes in global resource flows and supply and demand structures.
The conference will set up a long-term contract negotiation area and a one-to-one business docking session to provide an accurate and efficient communication platform for upstream and downstream companies, and promote pragmatic cooperation and coordinated development of the industrial chain.
The conference will bring together various resource mining, smelting and processing companies from all over the world. Representatives from key fields such as material research and development, battery cell manufacturing, terminal applications, equipment technology, etc. will gather in Xiamen to discuss the challenges and opportunities in the field of battery raw materials, deepen exchanges, expand contacts, expand the global market, and lay out future strategies.
The core objectives of the conference
1. Invite upstream companies in the global lithium battery industry (domestic and foreign nickel, cobalt, lithium resource producers and mid- and downstream buyers) to participate in the conference to obtain the latest market trends.
2. Discuss the SMM nickel, cobalt, and lithium price system and future price trends.
3. Build a cooperation platform and long-term contract negotiations to promote exchanges between upstream and downstream of the industrial chain.
4. Use the SMM spot trading platform to promote price discovery and maintain supply chain stability.
