An unprecedented level of international representation is expected at the International Congress on Rare Metals, Materials and Related Technologies "RAREMET-2026", which will be held in Moscow from May 20 to 22 at the RTU MIREA. The organizer of the event is Giredmet JSC. The heads of relevant ministries and departments from India, Indonesia and Vietnam confirmed their participation in key panel discussions and strategic sessions.
The largest foreign delegation at the Congress will be represented by India. The delegation will be led by the heads of key ministries responsible for the development of the rare metals industry from the extraction of mineral raw materials to the use of appropriate materials in high-tech industries in India. Among the leaders who confirmed their participation in the Congress are Mr. Sandeep Poundrik, Secretary of the Ministry of Steel Industry of India, and Secretary of the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology of India, Mr. S. Krishnan. Mr. Pundrick will participate in a panel discussion on global strategies for the development of the rare and rare earth metals (RM and REM) industry, and in particular on the formation of sustainable supply chains and bilateral cooperation between India and Russia in the field of critical metals. Mr. Krishnan will be one of the key speakers of the panel discussion on electronics materials, digitalization technologies and artificial intelligence, during which experts will discuss the role of AI in creating next-generation functional materials. The Congress is also expected to be attended by the Secretaries of the Ministry of Mining of India, Mr. Vivek Kumar Bajpai and Mr. Sandeep Vasant Kadam, Secretary of the Department of Science and Technology, Mr. Abhay Karandikar, as well as the heads of major scientific organizations in India, including CSIR and ARCI. In addition, the participation of the heads of the largest Indian company for the extraction and processing of rare earth metals, IREL (India) Limited, is expected. Representatives of over 30 Indian enterprises and scientific organizations will take part in the Congress. The high status of the delegation is underlined by the planned holding of the 11th meeting of the intergovernmental Russian-Indian subgroup on mineral resources within the framework of the Russian-Indian intergovernmental commission.
A high level of participation is expected from other Asian countries. Thus, Mr. Yogi Wibisono Budhi, Deputy Minister of Higher Education, Science and Technology of Indonesia, who also oversees the development of the REM industry in the country, will take part in the work of the RAREMET-2026 Congress. He and his team will present Indonesia's vision, experience and plans to create its own competence centers in the field of raw materials processing and synthesis.
The high interest in Russian competencies is also evidenced by the delegation of Vietnam, which will be headed by the Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade of Vietnam, Mr. Truong Thanh Hoai, as well as the President of the Vietnamese Academy of Sciences and Technology, Mr. Tran Hong Thai. The delegation is expected to include the heads of a number of scientific and industrial organizations working in the field of technologies for the extraction and processing of mineral raw materials containing rare earth metals. Their participation confirms their commitment to long-term scientific and industrial cooperation in the field of RM and REM, from geological exploration to high–tech industries.
More than 160 foreign delegates from 19 foreign countries in Asia, Europe, Africa and South America will take part in the Congress.
"Today, the RAREMET‑2026 Congress is the largest Russia's international platform for state and interstate dialogue on the most important aspects of resource and technological support for national sovereignty in the field of rare metals and critical materials. It is also the most important platform for recording achievements and direct exchange of opinions on the most relevant areas of development of science and technology of rare metals and materials based on them. The participation of high‑ranking government officials from friendly countries opens a new chapter in international cooperation, where Rosatom State Atomic Energy Corporation and Giredmet JSC, as a key industry competence center in the field of rare metals and the organizer of the Congress, play the role of an integrator of advanced scientific and industrial solutions in an increasingly sensitive scientific and technical areas, affecting technological development. the country, and its defense capability," said Konstantin Ivanovskikh, Deputy Director for Science and Innovation, Giredmet JSC, Co–chairman of the organizing Committee of the RAREMET‑2026 Congress.
The RAREMET-2026 Congress will bring together more than 650 participants from Russia, India, China, Kazakhstan, the Republic of Korea, Mongolia, Cuba, Egypt, Belarus, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Pakistan, Indonesia, Venezuela, Vietnam, Bangladesh, Armenia, Iran, Malaysia, Singapore and the Republic of South Africa.
