In 2008 CRU is proud to be taking its World Aluminium conference to Chongqing, the home of South West Aluminium and the heartland of the continuing Chinese investment in downstream aluminium production. Increasingly we find ourselves looking  at downstream investment, hence the decision to come to China in 2008.

China's success is not just limited to this market segment however - across the aluminium value chain the Chinese market has been the engine of growth for the global aluminium market over the last 5 years.

As always, CRU Events’ World Aluminium conference will give you a comprehensive update and insight into the latest movements of the worldwide aluminium industry brought to you by the leaders in the field.
