This
was the second mining investment initiative we have held in
Singapore under our Southeast
Asia Mining and Metals Forum, the purpose of which was
to:
-
-
Provide
market and industry leaders the opportunity to indicate
present and future trends affecting all aspects of gold.
-
Give
well-established gold mining companies the chance to
outline to significant investors their company’s
plans.
-
Offer
Fund Managers a platform to pitch for further
investment.
The
conference was opened by Chris
Thompson, Chairman of the World Gold Council, who gave
an informative perspective on “The
World of Gold Today”.
Other speakers and presenters, all of whom are
experts in their field, succeeded in delivering an
enlightening and thought provoking account of their views of
gold and investing in gold in the future.
This
conference, which drew just over 100 delegates (excluding
speakers), was an overwhelming success which is supported by
the completed evaluation forms we received from the
delegates after the event.
Some of the comments related to the presentations
(which were thought to be excellent), the format highly
effective and the venue of a very high standard.
