Dear Colleague,
I am pleased to invite you to join Platts 2013 European Steel Summit.
Over the course of three days in May, more than 200 participants will
convene in the heart of the city of London to address issues of interest
to Europe’s steel producers, traders, distributors and end users.
Topics being discussed are to include current steel supply and demand
dynamics, price direction, international trade opportunities and
pressure points, raw materials pricing, sustainability considerations,
regulation and financing. With global steel developments continuing to
have a significant impact on the European market, participants will also
look at trends within a worldwide context.
For the first time Platts will be co-hosting a number of its established
steel events in one city. The objective of this new format is to offer
a larger group of participants a comprehensive overview of what’s
happening in the European Steel sector as well as providing ample
opportunity for industry leaders to network, socialise and recognise
achievement amongst peers.
