Since 2016, Benchmark Week has been the leading gathering for the world’s lithium-ion battery supply chain and the wider energy transition.

This year, multiple content streams held simultaneously over three days will provide broader context of the opportunities and challenges facing clean energy supply chains, with in depth expert presentations & discussions alongside unrivalled networking, all hosted by Benchmark Mineral Intelligence.

Benchmark Week attracts key decision makers and active participants in the energy transition supply chain, from global policy makers, financial institutions, carmakers, battery manufacturers and critical mineral suppliers.

“The networking opportunities were unparalleled. Meeting professionals from various industries, exchanging ideas, and forging valuable connections enriched the experience even further. The atmosphere was electric with enthusiasm, as like-minded individuals shared their unique perspectives and ignited sparks of creativity.”

“Benchmark Week presents a perfect combination of policy, analytical, and industry experts and, therefore, attracts a good mix of businesses along the value chain and across the globe”

“The keynote speeches delivered by industry luminaries — and global icons — were truly inspiring. Each speaker shared their insights, expertise, and visionary ideas that left everyone in awe. The engaging format encouraged active participation, fostering an environment of dynamic collaboration among attendees.”

Last year’s event also featured new offerings including our first ever Critical Mineral Symposium; showcasing up-and-coming companies, projects and technologies in the critical mineral mining industry, and our first Lifetime Achievement Award winners. 

Last year’s winners were none other than Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and Nobel Laureate Professor Stanley Whittingham, who also provided keynote presentations on the mornings of the first and second day of the conference.

Five miles from LAX airport, near Venice Beach and Santa Monica, The Ritz-Carlton, Marina del Rey is perfectly located for this high level gathering.

Set along the waterfront, the event will combine large plenary sessions, interactive breakout discussions and lively networking functions.
