About the Organisers

Connecting the coal buyers with the c
Coaltrans Conferences is delighted to announce the launch of the
Coaltrans East Asia Networking Forum in Tokyo. The above
figures demonstrate just how critical the region of East Asia, and
most significantly Japan and South Korea, is in the global coal
industry as well as highlighting the evolving development of
spot trades within this region. The development of energy policy
and the role of coal in both Japan and South Korea is becoming
increasingly critical with both countries so heavily dependent on
coal at the moment.
The Coaltrans East Asia Networking Forum will combine
a focus on how the traditional coal markets of Japan and South
Korea are evolving and the launch of a new conference format
that adds even greater emphasis to interaction and developing
new business contacts by way of a series of round table
discussions. Take advantage of this opportunity to visit your
long standing customers and hear how their coal procurement
strategies are shaping up for the final quarter of 2013, or
alternatively introduce yourself to these large scale coal buyers as
they look to diversify their range of suppliers.
