EGA takes part in Harbor's 9th Aluminium Outlook Summit

Aluminium giant has participated actively since 2010

United Arab Emirates, 05 June 2016: Affirming its position as one of the world’s largest and leading primary aluminium producers, Emirates Global Aluminium (“EGA”) is proudly participating at Harbor’s 9th Aluminium Outlook Summit (“Harbor 2016”) as lead sponsor for the fourth consecutive year. Organised and hosted by Harbor Aluminium Intelligence the summit will take place in Chicago, USA, from 7 to 9 June 2016.

EGA’s activities at Harbor 2016 include the participation of EGA’s Chief Marketing Officer, Walid Al Attar, in a panel discussion on 8 June 2016, entitled “World’s major aluminium market players opine on strategic market topics.” Additionally, EGA will host a networking lunch for the participating delegates immediately prior to the panel discussion.

Al Attar, a regular attendee and speaker at the event since EGA and its operating subsidiaries’ first participation as partner sponsor in 2010, says: “EGA is always eager to participate in key aluminium industry events, with Harbor’s Outlook Summit being amongst the most important annual forums for two main reasons. First, the event is renowned as the largest and most strategic aluminium market gathering in the Americas, a region that is a key EGA market – some 12 per cent of our production was shipped to the two continents in 2015. Second, the event is a vital platform where experts share insights latest industry intelligence and trends. We are privileged to contribute to the global industry at this level.”
