Riyadh: The Future Minerals Forum (FMF), the world's leading platform for shaping the future of minerals, announced its partnership with BMO, the world's leading metals and mining investment bank. The partnership is part of FMF's aim to drive global mineral development through investment promotion, enhance engagement with targeted investors, and create a robust platform to drive mineral investment opportunities. This year, BMO will partner with FMF by sharing its deep metals and mining expertise as FMF convenes leaders of mining companies and large investors with a common objective - finding international opportunities to grow their investment portfolios in the sector.

According to Saudi Press Agency, Executive Director of FMF Ali Al-Mutairi stated that this partnership with BMO is a first for FMF, marking a significant step in their mission to facilitate investment in mineral development in the Super Region (Africa and Western and Central Asia) and globally. Al-Mutairi emphasized that by joining forces, FMF and BMO can create opportunities that not only benefit their organizations but also contribute to the growth and sustainability of the mineral sector in the MENA, the Super Region, and beyond.

Under the theme 'Gateway to Funding', the event will introduce several key elements when FMF is held in Riyadh from January 13 to 15, 2026. BMO will deliver closed-door information sessions for potential local and regional investors, covering the entire mineral value chain and investment journey, from exploration to mining and processing. Additionally, FMF and BMO will co-host strategy presentations by major mining companies, offering investors an exclusive opportunity to engage directly with industry leaders as part of the Gateway to Funding stream.

Through such partnerships, FMF continues to serve as the global platform connecting investors, policymakers, and industry leaders who are shaping the future of minerals. Registration for FMF 2026 is now open via their official channels.
