2013 is a tough year to almost every one. However, we believe only the hardship may test our capability, our resistance and our strength and only having gone through the great storms can we go farther in the future.
The Chinese economy is weak according to the forecast of some institutions. Under this condition, ferroalloy industry is certainly unable to escape from the hardship. Although the industry bottomed up in the end of 2012 after the downturn in almost the whole year, it went down again in 2H of February 2013. Market players were very pessimistic on the industry as price of ferroalloy products dropped and industry profit shrank. As enterprises handlers, they should open their minds and insure the smooth information channels in order to search more opportunities.
Under the condition, the 10th China Ferro-Alloys International Conference held on May 29-31, 2013 in Shanghai Longemont Hotel. Hosted by CCCMC and FERRO-ALLOYS.COM, the conference was also sponsored by OM materials (Qinzhou) Co., Ltd, Shanghai Jinneng International Trade Co., ltd and Shijiazhuang Sanhuan Manganese & Silicon and so on. In the conference, officers and experts from government, institutes and large enterprises were invited to make wonderful speeches on topics of Macro-economy, steel and ferroalloy industry trend, and opportunities and challenges of the industries, which greatly helped delegates to judge the industry future and optimize the enterprise strategy.
