Gavin Joins Santiago Workshop on Wealth and Value in the Lithium-ion Battery Chain

Gavin took part in the second workshop of the networking project "Entanglements of Wealth and Value in the Lithium-ion Battery Chain" in Santiago de Chile, organised by Escuela de Negocios Universidad Mayor and the Instituto de Geografía at the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. The project is funded by the Danish Ministry of Higher Education and Science and led by Duncan Wigan of Copenhagen Business School.

Participants heard from in-country experts on the lithium supply chain, following an earlier workshop in Beijing. Gavin represented the Birmingham Centre for Strategic Elements and Critical Materials, talking about work from the ReLiB, Met4Tech and TReFCo projects.

The project concluded with a workshop organised by Copenhagen Business School, which Gavin attended, discussing working papers and the interdisciplinary, international character of the collaboration.
