Australian Gold Reagents (AGR) has announced it will sponsor the 2018 RIU Explorers Conference in Fremantle, following a successful event held on 22 – 23 February 2017.

The RIU Explorers Conference continues to be the premier forum for junior resource companies to engage with and hear from industry heavy weights on the innovations and initiatives enriching the sector.

AGR Account Manager, Sandra Grljusich said AGR were delighted to maintain their affiliation with the conference, which continued to attract an ever-growing group of brokers, fund managers and investors, providing the perfect opportunity for industry professionals to network.

“We were thrilled to attend the conference this year as an exhibitor and sponsor, which afforded a fantastic way to connect with the industry,” she said.

“It’s a great feeling to see our current and potential customers wear their lanyards and name badge with our logo, which meant great exposure for our brand.”

The first major conference for the year on the Australian Resources Calendar, this two-day event attracted over 600 delegates, 50 exhibitions and industry expert keynote speakers.

Ms Grljusich said exhibiting at the conference helped build the AGR brand, but networking and understanding customers and market sentiment was of most value.

“This is our second year attending the conference and the opportunity it provides us to meet with current and potential customers is the greatest benefit.

“To better understand what is happening in the market, what the struggles are and the future exploration activities of clients help us to shape our business and tailor our offering.

“We can stay one step ahead and continue to offer safe and responsible technical services to support training, transport and storage management to our customers’ benefit.”
