Swedish Metals & Minerals mission:
Ensuring a sustainable and resilient metals and minerals supply for the societal transition.
The program will increase and secure the availability of metals and minerals and at the same time reduce the planetary footprint of extraction and production. Metals and minerals that are extracted or recycled must generate as much useful function and as little waste as possible.
The program will work for collaboration in the value chain nationally and internationally, design business models, policy proposals and social innovation that pave the way for solutions required to fulfil the mission.
Swedish Metals & Minerals is led by Jernkontoret in collaboration with Luleå University of Technology, LTU Business, Sustainable Steel Region, Svemin - the Swedish Association of Mines, Mineral and Metal Producers, The Swedish Foundry Association, Svenskt Aluminium and Örebro University.
