From Rocks to Cleantech: Building a Trusted Critical Minerals Value Chain

Critical minerals are the DNA of cleantech. Is Victoria ready to lead?

Australia sits on a rare combination: geological endowment, engineering talent and policy momentum. But turning critical minerals into a trusted, high-value cleantech advantage is about much more than what we dig up.

Join the Victorian Cleantech Cluster for a lunchtime panel on From Rocks to Cleantech: Building a Trusted Critical Minerals Value Chain

We'll trace the journey from rocks in the ground to deployment in clean technologies, asking:

• Where is global and APAC demand for critical minerals heading?

• What's investable now across exploration, processing and enabling tech?

• Where is innovation breaking bottlenecks in processing and refining?

• What does it take to deliver projects with strong social licence and community trust?

Panel:

• Summer Bae – APAC strategy & geopolitical risk

• Jun Qu – Investor lens & critical minerals thesis

• Diana Rasner – Innovation in processing & refining

• Anna Quillinan – Project delivery & social licence

Moderated by Brian Borowsky, Victorian Cleantech Cluster.
