Lithium Workshop UFMG 2019

Date: April 25, 2019
Location: UFMG Rectory Auditorium

The use of lithium by the high-tech electronics industry grows every year. This increase, driven mainly by the production of automotive batteries and mobile phones, has made lithium a highly relevant asset in anticipation of the use of cleaner and smarter technologies in the near future. In this context, Minas Gerais and Brazil can fulfill a relevant status in the global panorama of the lithium market. In addition to reflecting on the strategic role of lithium, the Workshop aimed to discuss possibilities for collaboration between the academic community and companies in the sector and also be a space for students to learn about opportunities to work in the job market.
