The EU–Zambia Lobito Corridor Business Forum will take place in Lusaka from 12 to 14 November 2025, highlighting growing cooperation between the European Union and Zambia in the field of critical raw materials (CRM).

The Forum will bring together industry leaders, policymakers, and investors from both regions to explore opportunities across the CRM value chain. Key sessions will focus on:

  • Unlocking hidden value in Zambia, showcasing advanced exploration technologies as enablers for mining investment;
  • Optimizing mining operations, with innovative approaches to mining services, tailings treatment, and circular economy practices; and
  • Beneficiation of critical raw materials, emphasizing Zambia’s potential for local processing and manufacturing of high-value minerals.

In addition to the conference programme, the Forum will provide numerous opportunities for networking and matchmaking with Zambian industry representatives and government decision-makers. The event underscores the EU’s and Zambia’s shared commitment to building a sustainable and mutually beneficial CRM partnership, supporting responsible value chain development within the Lobito Corridor and beyond.
