Umicore is a leading circular material technology company and a leader in the development and production of cathode active materials for Lithium-ion batteries. The electrification of transportation and the strong impact of sustainability have tremendous impact on our group and society in general. It is crucial for Umicore to grasp the impact of this transformation on cathode materials chemistries and associated metals demand.
