3 reasons to head to IMARC 2024 (and connect with acQuire)

The leading International Mining and Resources Conference (IMARC) is back again from the 29 – 31 October 2024, and bigger than ever!  

IMARC brings together industry leaders from the mining and resources sector to collaborate and innovate on solutions that drive ESG and environmental resilience, the energy transition and the digitisation of mines – creating a more sustainable future for the industry.  

acQuire is proud to be a silver sponsor of IMARC 2024 and is getting ready to join more than 500 exhibitors on the conference floor. With the event set to attract more than 9,000 attendees, IMARC is an incredible opportunity to network, explore new technologies, and discuss the future of mining with decision-makers from across the entire mining value chain. 

To make sure you’re getting the most out of your time at IMARC 2024, here are three things you’ll want to add to your must-do list during the conference: 

1. Explore the latest software innovation 

Across the conference floor, you’ll find a stack of useful tools and pieces of software that can provide support across the entire mining value chain, so where do you begin? 

Much like any software, the value you get out of it is only as good as the data you put in. That’s why we think you should start by looking at how you manage your data – something acQuire has been helping the mining industry with for more than 25 years.  

At our booth B14, you’ll get the chance to explore: 

  • a smarter, streamlined way to capture, manage and deliver geoscientific information with GIM Suite,  
  • how to efficiently capture, validate, monitor, analyse and report any type of environmentally related data with EnviroSys, and 
  • how Insite provides companies with operations in South Africa a complete view of their social compliance data within a single source.  

acQuire has made big updates to both its GIM Suite and EnviroSys software this year so stop past the booth and find out how the new features and enhancements can help you optimise your data management processes and improve your compliance reporting. 

2. Chat with technology experts 

On the conference floor, you’ll find thousands of people. Whether you’re interested in understanding how our software can help you manage your geoscientific data more efficiently or monitor your environmental obligations and compliance in real-time, our product experts are here to help. 

At booth B14, you’ll find the acQuire team ready to chat about how you can make more confident decisions with your data. You’ll have the opportunity to engage with: 

  • Alison Atkins – CEO  
  • Lee-Anne Coleman – Customer Success Leader 
  • Stuart van de Water – Environmental Leader 
  • Mark Gomez – EnviroSys Product Manager 
  • Yen Nguyen – Business Development Manager (Mining) 

If you want to get your calendar organised before IMARC even begins, lock in a meeting with the team here. 

3. Hear from industry leaders

Bring a notepad and pen because IMARC is set to host more than 370 technical talks, panel discussions and keynotes this year. Joining the action-packed three-day program is Stuart van de Water, Environmental Leader at acQuire. 

Environmental compliance is crucial to sustainable mining, but it’s not always easy to achieve. Addressing this in his presentation titled “Managing Water Data for Compliance: The Struggle is Real”, Stuart is diving into the challenges and solutions surrounding water data management, and how it relates to compliance reporting.  

You’ll find Stuart in the Mining Innovation Theatre on Wednesday, October 30, as part of the Water Sustainability in Mining session. Get more information about Stuart’s presentation here.
