About us.

What is EUMICON?

EUMICON is a European-wide platform gathering stakeholders from the entire value chain of mineral resources and metals industries, from extracting, processing and refining via manufacturing to recycling, to discuss and promote European raw materials value chains for a competitive European industry. By fostering European raw materials value chains, our platform plays a crucial role in safeguarding Europe's economic prosperity while ensuring its transition to a carbon-neutral continent.

Our mission

EUMICON is Europe’s strong platform outlining Europe's challenges and opportunities in the field of raw materials. Through High-Level events, bilateral meetings, delegation trips, workshops and educational cooperations, EUMICON provides the settings to discuss and shape the political, ecological and technological conditions for a European industrial and economic sovereignty and prosperity through value chains.

Our vision

EUMICON aims at building a sustainable, competitive and resilient Europe through raw materials value chains in Europe.

Our values

Our platform

Together, our voice will be louder

Since 2012, we are a platform that gathers several European stakeholders involved in the value chains of mineral and metal industries to find common solutions for a European strategic autonomy. Thanks to our platform and our activities, our partners have developed shared solutions and been raising awareness about the importance of raw materials value chains for the development of our Europe at all levels.

What we offer to our partners

We facilitate their opinions, solutions and best practices exchange by organising meetings with key policy actors in the sector in different set ups.
