Mining & Energy Technology Services (METS) Working Group

Chairs: Roger Wolfe (WesTrac) & Stuart Mengler (Allens Arthur Robinson)

The METS Working Group has been established to provide a platform for the promotion of Australian companies working in China's mining and energy sectors, as well as the increased integration of companies providing technologies and services to these industries.

Given the increasing number of AustCham members representing these industries, the Working Group aims to act as a forum for networking, and for the identification of common issues and common goals. The Working Group also serves as a vehicle for greater engagement between members and the wider business and government community, creating a focal point for Australian mining and energy interests in China.
