FMF is Saudi Arabia’s government-led critical-minerals platform and has rapidly become the world’s premier convening point for upstream and midstream mining stakeholders spanning Africa, West and Central Asia. It gathers ministers, mining CEOs, OEMs, offtakers, financiers and service providers to discuss resilient mineral value chains, responsible mining and new processing capacity. FMF 2026 will again feature an expanded ministerial roundtable, leadership roundtables and a Mineral Exploration Hub showcasing juniors.
