Background and Contents

The Chinese and international steel industry is experiencing historical changes in regard to the policy and macro-economic environment, market conditions, capacity situation, raw material supply, trade relations and the enterprise organization structure, etc. In particular, the newly promulgated Chinese Eleventh Five-Year Plan for National Economy and Social Development, the Steel Industry Development Policy and the Development Plan of the Steel Industry in 2006-2010, will exert a tremendous influence on the future development of the Chinese steel industry. At the same time, along with the uncertain changes of the world economy and the slowdown of the steel demand, the international steel industry is expected to undergo profound structural reforms in the coming years.

China International Steel Congress is a high-level conference focusing on the profound, overall and strategic questions of the steel industry. Since its birth in 2000, the congress has been held successfully for four times and become a leading international event of the steel industry.

The Congress will include a Plenary Session on June 2 and several Technical Seminars from June 3 to 4. The Plenary Session will be conducted in the form of panel discussions, covering political and economic environment, restructuring, technological innovations and green application of steel. The panelists invited include the Chairmen (or CEOs) of Arcelor Mittal, Nippon Steel, POSCO, US Steel, ThyssenKrupp, Tata Steel, Severstal, Baosteel, Ansteel, WISCO, Shougang, Tangshan Steel, Taiyuan Steel, Shasteel and Valin Group, etc. The Technical Seminars, held in conjunction with Metal+Metallurgy Expo, will present the state-of-the-art green technologies in iron-making, steel-making, continuous casting, hot rolling, cold rolling and casting. Metal+Metallurgy Expo will take place from June 3 to 6, 2008 at Shanghai New International Expo Center.
