Introduction

The conference will allow all attendees to maximise their profits from slag - both ferrous and non-ferrous, will keep them up-to-date with the industry state-of-the-art and will provide extensive networking and business opportunities for both producers and users of slag and slag-based products. If your business is slag, make it your business to attend the Virtual Global Slag Conference in 2020!

Given the interest of the cement industry in these subjects, Global Slag, the organiser of the event, has decided to create a 'virtual' version of the Slag Conference which will take place in spring 2020, to give participants an opportunity to continue with business, and to give participants timely information on the developing situation.

The conference is live and 'global,' and will take place on Central European Time, as a compromise for the global audience. Additionally, the conference presentations will be available on 'catch-up' on-demand to registered attendees.

Registration includes participation in the virtual conference webinar, a download of the conference programme (including the presentation slides), online real-time Q&As and inclusion in the online cyber-networking community. You must have an internet connection and up-to-date computer to participate.

Cost for participation is £195.

There is free registration for slag producers. Email Mrs Amanda Crow to register if you are a slag producer.
