Europe’s ambition to secure and diversify its Critical Raw Materials supply cannot rely on a single instrument or geography. This panel takes a macro-view of how three distinct initiatives—the EU-Australia CRM Partnership, the Greenland Green Growth Project, and the CRM-Facility, work in tandem to advance RESourceEU and build a resilient, multi-speed supply chain for Europe.  

The panel will bring together perspectives from the three initiatives to demonstrate how this framework is being operationalised across regions and stages of development — from upstream geological exploration, processing and refining to concrete offtake agreements. The panel is complemented by an industry perspective, giving voice to what companies expect EU-backed initiatives to deliver, how mid-stream actors assess emerging partnerships, and what Europe must offer to convert strategic intent into commercially viable, long-term supply relationships.
