Join us at Raw Materials Week 2025!

Securing a reliable and sustainable supply of critical raw materials (CRMs) is essential for Europe’s green and digital transition — yet projects across the value chain still face common bottlenecks that prevent solutions from reaching full scale.

To address these challenges, the REMHUb project, together with nine Horizon Europe projects in the raw materials field, is proud to co-organise the side event “Crossroads of Innovation: Shared Challenges and Joint Solutions in Raw Materials” during Raw Materials Week 2025.

This interactive workshop will bring together EU projects, industry, and policymakers to:

• Present concrete solutions developed in Horizon Europe and related initiatives,
• Identify bottlenecks and propose measures to overcome them,
• Explore synergies across primary, secondary, and advanced material value chains,
• Provide structured input for a joint policy brief supporting the Critical Raw Materials Act, the Green Deal Industrial Plan, and STEP.

The programme features two thematic sessions on primary extraction and secondary/circular resources, followed by a high-level panel discussion on innovation-to-policy pathways.

By focusing on solutions and collaboration, the workshop will generate actionable insights to strengthen Europe’s open strategic autonomy and accelerate the transition toward a resilient and sustainable CRM supply.
