The conference and the competition created a combined international platform for the presentation of innovative digital technologies for the mining and extractive industries.

Over 90 Russian and international companies exhibited at MINEX Russia Mining Trade & Investment Show in 2019 which attracted over 1000 visitors.

New Format

We have created a unique hybrid platform that will allow holding presentations, organising business meetings both offline and online. Even if you cannot attend the event in person, we will offer you online opportunities for presenting at the forum. You will also be able to demonstrate your company’s projects, products, and services at a virtual exhibition. You will also be able to connect with colleagues, make new contacts, participate in virtual networking events, and much more.

Our new web-based simultaneous translation system will help virtual and in-person participants to seamlessly listen to simultaneous translation of the presentations and ask speakers questions in real-time.

We have developed our own mobile application to ensure seamless communications between participants present in-person and virtually. In the application, you will be able to access the list of participants, open personal chats, send meeting invitations, synchronise meetings in your personal calendar and hold meetings either on-site or in your personal virtual room.

Participants Safety

Due to the COVID-19 virus pandemic, the forum and the trade exhibition are held in a hybrid format (in-person and virtually) in accordance with the requirements of Rospotrebnadzor.

The Forum Secretariat will take all necessary measures to ensure the safety of forum participants and exhibition visitors. Our security and hotel staff will monitor the number of people present in the conference and exhibition halls and food areas, as well as monitor the implementation of mandatory personal hygiene and sanitary measures.  We care about your safety!
