B2i Digital, the Capital Markets Matchmaker, announced the Precious Metals & Critical Minerals Hybrid Conference, set for Thursday, May 21, 2026, at OTC Markets Headquarters in Manhattan, with a simultaneous live broadcast to a global investor audience. The event, co-sponsored by The Nuvo Group, will feature a keynote address from Jeff Christian, Managing Partner of CPM Group, titled "The Bullish Outlook For Precious Metals," and a curated lineup of public companies spanning gold, silver, copper, nickel, cobalt, lithium, rare earths, titanium, and phosphate. The lineup includes senior producers, mid-tier developers, and exploration-stage issuers.
The hybrid format pairs in-person institutional investor access in Manhattan with a live virtual broadcast, supported by structured 1x1 meeting requests through the conference platform. David Shapiro, CEO of B2i Digital, emphasized the value of the hybrid approach: "What I like about a hybrid event is that it doesn’t ask anyone to choose. Investors who can be in Manhattan walk in and meet management face to face. Investors anywhere else in the world get the same content live the same day. Adding the in-person layer on top of what VIC already does virtually just gives both audiences a better experience."
The conference is co-sponsored by The Nuvo Group, a New York-based provider of financial printing, SEC/EDGAR filing, proxy design, and shareholder communications services. Tony Barletta, Managing Partner of The Nuvo Group, noted: "Most of the companies presenting at this conference are exactly the kind of issuers we work with every day, public companies navigating SEC filings, proxy season, and the constant communication demands of the capital markets. Mining and critical minerals is moving fast right now, and giving these management teams a direct line to institutional and retail investors is something we wanted to get behind."
The morning session (9:00 AM to 12:15 PM ET) kicks off with Jeff Christian's keynote at 9:00 AM, followed by presentations from Viva Gold Corp., Cygnus Metals Limited, Eloro Resources Ltd., Oreterra Metals Corp., and Metals One plc. The afternoon session (12:30 PM to 4:15 PM ET) includes Amaroq Ltd., Midnight Sun Mining Corp., Star Gold Corp., Sirios Resources Inc., Canadian Phosphate Limited, Honey Badger Silver Inc., and Renforth Resources, Inc.
Investors can register for the live virtual broadcast via the morning session link and the afternoon session link. In-person attendance registration is available via Eventbrite. To schedule 1x1 meetings with management, participants can use the Axle Access platform.
This conference is significant as it provides a direct line for investors to engage with mining companies in a sector that is critical for the global energy transition and technological advancement. Precious metals and critical minerals are essential for everything from electronics to electric vehicle batteries, and the event offers a rare opportunity for both institutional and retail investors to hear from management teams and ask questions in real time. The hybrid model ensures broad accessibility, while the curated lineup and keynote from a respected analyst like Jeff Christian underscore the event's credibility and relevance.
