Steel Markets Forum - Dubai

This event is past.

Overview

This event is now sold out, however we may have some places become available so are running a waitlist. Join the waitlist to attend the Kallanish Steel Markets Forum in Dubai on 15 June 2023. This event will bring together the Kallanish editorial team from China, India, GCC, Turkey and Europe, delivering market updates from their respective regions and presenting a global perspective.

Global steel markets are at a turning point. The first-quarter rebound in sentiment has faded and markets are slowing globally. Geopolitical fragmentation, as well as persistently high inflation in advanced economies cloud the growth outlook. In the midst of adversity, much hope has been pinned on China’s rebound following the end of its zero-Covid policy, but the recovery is yet to materialise. Instead, Chinese steel exports have surged this year. Neighbouring India, a bright spot last year for economic growth, has also seen domestic demand slump in recent weeks, while the US, whose economy remained resilient following the outbreak of war in Ukraine, is now staring at possible recession. European steel demand is meanwhile bracing for further decline in 2023, after a difficult 2022, with the market already looking forward to 2024 and beyond, and, in particular, a new demand cycle associated with accelerating decarbonisation.

  • In Turkey, post-earthquake reconstruction will require substantial steel tonnages, but when will the demand come and how long will it last?
  • In the Gulf Cooperation Council, Saudi Vision 2030 is the next big demand driver. But when will the related infrastructure projects break ground and start demanding steel?
  • China, as always, will be key to developments going forward. Will the demand rebound

We are looking forward to welcoming a large crowd so please make sure that you confirm your place as places are limited.
