Aaron Morey of CME on the future of WA resources

Aaron Morey, CEO of the Chamber of Minerals and Energy of Western Australia (CME), sat down with IMARC to discuss Western Australia’s role in the future of the global resources sector. From growing demand for LNG, gold, iron ore, copper and lithium to the importance of investment certainty, efficient project approvals and access to skilled workers, Aaron shares his perspective on what will shape Western Australia’s competitiveness in the years ahead. He also explores the role of technology and innovation in driving opportunities beyond mining and energy, including advanced manufacturing, defence and space, as well as WA’s ambitions in critical minerals processing and economic diversification. Aaron also discusses why events like IMARC provide an important opportunity for industry, government and international stakeholders to connect, share knowledge and navigate the challenges and opportunities facing the resources sector.
