RBA and RMI Annual Conference 2023
Oct. 16-19, 2023 | Santa Clara, California & Online
Join us for a world-class annual conference and experience for attendees, including members of the RBA and its Initiatives (RMI) as well as non-member companies and representatives from industry, government, intergovernmental organizations, civil society and other key stakeholders.
We’ve combined the RBA and RMI annual conferences this year to create one comprehensive event that will include issues critical to the entire global supply chain, from the mine to the store shelf, such as human rights, the environment, minerals sourcing, emerging issues and regulations, supply chain resiliency, and more!
The RMI will hold an in-person Member Meeting on Monday, October 16, following by the Conference October 17-19.
The theme of this year’s conference will be “The Supply Chain of the Future,” with a first day focusing on “Just Transition,” a deeper-dive second day focusing on “Impact at Scale,” and last day open to stakeholder and partner presentations.
