4–5 November 2026 | Jyväskylä, Finland
AuroraTech participated in FinnMateria 2026, one of Finland’s leading events for the mining, metals and mineral processing industries. Held in Jyväskylä on 4–5 November, the event brought together Finnish mining companies, technology providers, researchers and international stakeholders to discuss the future of the mining industry and sustainable resource development.
During FinnMateria 2026, AuroraTech Business Development Director Carolina M. Ahlstrand presented the company’s expertise and explored opportunities for cooperation with a visiting Latin American mining delegation, including representatives from Peru, Chile, Argentina and Uruguay.
Connecting Finnish Mining Technology with Latin American Opportunities
Latin America is a major region for global mineral production and plays an increasingly important role in the energy transition and critical minerals supply chains. This creates significant opportunities for Finnish mining expertise and technologies in areas such as mineral processing, water management, environmental monitoring, automation, electrification and sustainable mining.
For AuroraTech, FinnMateria provided an important platform for discussing how Finnish technological expertise can contribute to the development of more sustainable and efficient mining operations in Latin American markets.
Building Connections Across Finland’s Mining Ecosystem
The event also offered AuroraTech an opportunity to strengthen connections within Finland’s mining and technology ecosystem. The team met with fellow members of the Finnish Water Forum, attended presentations by Finnish research and technology organizations, and followed the program at the Mining Finland stage.
AuroraTech also acknowledges Niina Fu Consultants for facilitating connections between Finnish and Latin American mining stakeholders and supporting the development of international business relationships.
During the event, AuroraTech shared its perspectives through interviews with official media partners Minería Chilena from Chile and Rumbo Minero TV from Peru, further contributing to the dialogue around opportunities for cooperation between Finnish and Latin American mining industries.
Strengthening International Cooperation in Mining
As a member of Mining Finland, AuroraTech is proud to be part of a strong and collaborative network representing Finnish expertise in the global mining industry.
FinnMateria 2026 highlighted the potential for increased cooperation between Finland and Latin America, particularly in areas where mining technology, digital solutions, environmental expertise and sustainable water management can support the future development of the sector.
AuroraTech continues to build connections between Finnish innovation and international mining opportunities, supporting the transition towards more sustainable, efficient and technology-driven mining.
