With increasing global demand for critical materials and growing uncertainties in supply chains, the “Innovative Strategies for Critical Material Recovery from Sustainable Feedstocks” symposium will bring together industry leaders, academic researchers, and national laboratory experts.

Additionally, new for 2025 this symposium will feature a tutorial on Wednesday June 11^th on this industry that will cover the following topics:

1. Introduction to Rare Earths and Permanent Magnet Materials (TEA/Lifecycle/Supply Chain of magnets) Speaker: Braeton James
2. Mining, Extraction, Processing, Concentration, and Separation Speaker: Corby Anderson
3. From Waste to Resource: Secondary and Unconventional Feedstocks Speaker: Alison Fritz
4. Magnetism Explored: Fundamentals, Discoveries, Developments, Applications, and Future Prospects Speaker: Andriy Palasyuk
5. Metallization/Magnet Fabrication and Manufacturing/Recycling End-of-Life Permanent Magnets Speaker: Jun Cui
