Mining is an economic activity that has presented and still offers constant challenges that we have learnt to overcome and face thanks to opportunities such as the Entrepreneurial Meeting. This encounter gathers us as a sector and allows us to have different visions of the current national reality. It invites us to start from these exchanges, to contribute to the Mining Agenda, its consolidation, and especially, to the development of Peru.

The Entrepreneurial Meeting will offer this time several issues related to realities influencing mining industry, as well as research works related to economic growth and social conflict, mining competitiveness as well as perceptions and realities related to the sector.

This date will continue the work of previous editions, since this is not only a space to critically discuss and reflect on the general background of mining activity, but also, to contribute with ideas and proposals to implement solutions in a jointly corporate manner.

Under the motto Mining for Development, we - a team of highly qualified professionals and businessmen of the sector - have undertook the responsibility of organizing this important meeting held within PERUMIN – 30th Mining Convention framework and that will gather the most important entrepreneurial leaders and authorities for discussing the future of the mining sector.

Please be welcome from September 12 to 16, 2010 to Arequipa.

Roque Benavides Ganoza
President of the Entrepreneurial Meeting Committee
