How Will Geoeconomics Impact Critical Resources? - #FII7 Day 1
"How Will Geoeconomics Impact Critical Resources?" took place at the Future Investment Initiative 7th Edition on October 24th, 2023.
As access to critical minerals becomes a geopolitical and economic priority, the world's next phase of innovation and prosperity hinges on sustainably harnessing these finite natural resources. With China producing up to 98% of key minerals like gallium and 84% of tungsten in 2022, per USGS data, tech-driven growth now relies on complex global supply chains vulnerable to disruption. Can a new era of international cooperation secure reliable access to the building blocks of progress while transitioning to circular models that employ minerals judiciously rather than jeopardize scarcity?
