Testimonials

In two days we met recyclers, logistics partners, and second-life storage developers who are directly relevant to our North American programs. The discussions were commercial, concrete, and focused on real deployment and not just concepts.

Vice President, Battery Recycling and Circular Supply Chains

The event provided a clear picture of how global policy, local regulation, and technology innovation are converging. It helped us benchmark our own recycling initiatives and identify partners to scale our closed-loop materials strategy.

Vice President, New Energy Battery Recovery Programs

This conference brings together serious stakeholders from across the chain, from cell manufacturers to scrap generators. The dialogue around scaling infrastructure, permitting, and financing was exactly what the industry needs right now

Executive Vice President, Global Circular Battery Programs

The mix of technical sessions and high-level market panels was excellent. We came away with new insights into regional supply dynamics and several promising leads for partnerships in both Europe and North America.

Senior Vice President, Global Recycling Strategy

The exhibition floor was extremely targeted. Delegates came with specific projects in mind, sourcing black mass, offtake for cathode materials, or setting up new collection networks, which made every conversation worthwhile.

Vice President, Commercial Partnerships & Growth

The case studies on scaling industrial recycling lines and integrating with OEM take-back schemes were particularly valuable. We left with several concrete partnership opportunities across Europe and North America.

Head of Industrial Battery Recovery Programs

We attend many conferences, but this one is uniquely focused on the economics and logistics of end-of-life batteries. The quality of delegates, senior decision makers with real volumes and budgets, made every meeting worthwhile.

Global Director, Strategy & New Markets

The sessions on evolving regulations, critical minerals strategy, and upcoming recycling capacity were directly relevant for our long-term compliance and sourcing plans. It is a very efficient way to take the pulse of the industry.
