June tech talk and luncheon: Shaping Commodities - Geopolitics, Markets, and Models
Join Sydney Branch and WIMnet NSW for their June tech talk and luncheon: Shaping Commodities - Geopolitics, Markets, and Models.
About this event
This talk will provide a strategic overview of the evolving forces shaping the commodities landscape, with a particular focus on the metal and mining sector. It will include an overview of global geopolitics and how shifting power dynamics, trade policies, and regional tensions are influencing commodity supply, demand, and pricing.
The discussion will also cover market expectations for key metal and mining commodities, highlighting prevailing trends, uncertainties, and the factors driving future outlooks. From energy transition minerals to traditional bulk commodities, it outlines the key drivers shaping near- and medium-term outlooks.
In addition, the talk will explore the growing role of predictive modelling and machine learning in the commodities space. It will consider how advanced analytics are reshaping forecasting, improving decision-making, and providing a competitive edge in an increasingly complex and data-driven environment.
