About the event

The Mining Investors ?n? Explorers Show, Sydney 2011 (MInES Sydney 2011 for short) is a brand new event with a unique international focus. It is the only event of its kind, focusing on bringing local and international investors together with local and international mining companies to meet and do business in Sydney, one of the mining investment capitals of the world.

MInES Sydney aims to be the largest annual global mining investment event in Australia and maybe one day the world, providing a lucrative opportunity for junior and mid-cap miners from all corners of the globe to attract attention from both local and international investors - all in the one place.

Throughout the 2 day conference and exhibition (4 - 5 July), international mining and exploration companies will showcase the latest investment opportunities on offer and provide investors and financiers with the information they need to take their investment performance in the sector to the next level. Attendees will also hear insightful presentations on the latest investment strategies and ideas from highly respected and influential international investors from the US, Europe and Asia, including countries of increasing outbound investment, such as China, India and Korea.
