Upcoming event: SBB Steel Focus China 2010

We should very much like to invite you to attend Steel Business Briefing’s Steel Focus China one day conference in the Crowne Plaza Hotel, Shanghai on Thursday 22 April 2010.

2009 was a very difficult year for the global steel sector – but not in China… PRC produced nearly 50% of the world’s crude steel in 2009 and the outlook within the sector for 2010 is similarly optimistic. Understanding this extremely large and complex national market is becoming even more important for anyone involved in the steel industry anywhere in the world.

The latest SBB survey of Chinese Mills shows that:

• 45% show say their biggest concern for 2010 is market fluctuation
• 79% expect Chinese crude steel production to rise again this year
• 60% believe that the construction sector will this year show the strongest demand in China
• 42% say that increasing exports is their biggest hope for improvement in 2010
• Mills struggle to assess correctly movements in market price volatility

SBB prides itself on its ability to create meeting opportunities for people working in and around the global steel industry, so there will also be 4 major opportunities for networking during the day, with an experienced SBB team in attendance to make sure that you get the most out of your time with us.
