Pakistan Minerals Investment Forum 2026 is due to take place 12 to 13 November at the Jinnah Convention Centre in Islamabad.
The two-day forum will explore investment opportunities across Pakistan’s mineral sector. Pakistan’s senior decisionmakers, international investors, mining leaders and technical experts will gather to advance Pakistan’s ambitions.
Topics of discussion will include policy reform, exploration financing, flagship projects, geological collaboration, infrastructure and responsible development.
As the global energy transition, digitalisation and technological advancement continue to shape demand for copper and other critical minerals, PMIF26 will provide a platform to showcase Pakistan’s mineral potential and build on its position in regional and global supply chains.
PMIF26 will feature an integrated programme spanning a strategic conference, technical conference and international exhibition.
Discussions will examine global mineral demand, Pakistan’s emerging project pipeline, investment and regulatory frameworks, early-stage exploration financing and the infrastructure required to support large-scale mining operations.
The programme will also consider the importance of geological data and international technical collaboration in reducing exploration risk, alongside workforce development, local content and the role of innovation in strengthening the sector’s long-term competitiveness.
Alongside the conference programme, the international exhibition will showcase mineral projects, equipment, technologies and services, enabling engagement between project sponsors, regulators, and investors.
The technical conference will bring together researchers and industry specialists to share insights on Pakistan’s geology, exploration, mineral development and value addition, supported by more than 50 peer-reviewed technical papers and opportunities for knowledge exchange.
Building on the foundations of previous editions, PMIF26 aims to advance Pakistan’s ambitions to develop a competitive, responsible and internationally connected mining industry.
