This fall is only the beginning. 121 Mining Investment has nine events scheduled through September 2027, including Dubai, Cape Town, Miami, Hong Kong, a spring London edition, New York, and Dallas, and B2i Digital is adding each to its website at https://b2idigital.com/conferences. By 121's own count, the series facilitates over 10,000 meetings between more than 600 mining companies and nearly 3,000 qualified investors annually.
David Shapiro, Chief Executive Officer of B2i Digital, Inc., stated, "121 runs the largest mining investor conference series in the world. We only go big, and we only go big with the best in each sector. Partnering with 121 in New York, London and online is exactly how B2i connects public companies with investors everywhere. Conquering the world one conference at a time." Steve Davidson, Head of Investor Strategy at 121 Mining Investment, added, "B2i Digital brings North American micro- and small-cap investors who are new to mining into our meetings. Every good investor we bring into our world is good for our participating companies, and that's what we look for in a partner."
For the mining industry, this collaboration matters because it provides a platform for junior and small-cap mining companies to gain visibility and access to a broader pool of investors. B2i Digital's media network spans over 800 news, broadcast, and trade outlets with a combined monthly audience of more than 330 million, plus 1.7 million followers, 70,000 opt-in email subscribers, and a database of 235,000 capital markets contacts. This reach could help mining companies attract new investment, which is critical for exploration and development projects. The partnership also signals continued interest in the mining sector from the investment community, potentially leading to increased funding for raw materials projects worldwide.
