More on the European Battery Raw Materials Conference 2026
The European Battery Raw Materials Conference 2026 will take place from 15–17 September 2026 at Budapest , Hungary.
The event will be at Budapest in September 2026. With gigafactories already built and OEMs sourcing raw materials, the conference puts the people producing, refining, recycling, and financing those materials inside the market they are trying to supply.

The procurement and investment decisions that follow European battery manufacturing expansion are being made right now by the key stakeholders who will be attending this event.
