With India being described as "Asia's fastest growing economy, having expanded 10.4% year on year in the final quarter of 2003”, the steel industry is eager to reap the benefit of this blossoming economy.

Taking place on 17-19 October, the Metal Bulletin "Indian Steel Forum" will bring together a diverse range of steel producers, buyers and consumers to discuss the current issues shaping the future of the industry.

Following the surprise results of the recent election, the international metals and steel community is presently assessing the implications of a new Indian government, especially their policy towards privatisation. This conference will provide the opportunity to hear from India's public and private steel producing companies and their opinions on the state of the Indian markets and the role of India's steel makers overseas.

There has never been a more timely conference! The Indian Steel Forum will provide delegates with a first class speaker panel and unique networking opportunities. The event brings together top decision-makers to address the specific key issues that will shape the future of the industry and is a must for anyone operating in India.
