SUMMARY:David Jacoby Speaking at Critical Minerals North America Conference & Exhibition 2026\, New York City
DESCRIPTION:Boston Strategies International is pleased to announce that David Jacoby will be speaking at the Critical Minerals North America Conference & Exhibition 2026\, taking place in New York City.  \nCritical Minerals North America is America’s longest running international critical minerals\, commodities\, investment\, new energy & technologies show\, bringing together the entire mineral resources value chain to New York City.  \nDavid Jacoby’s Session Topic:  \nHow to Develop All-American Critical Minerals Value Chains Before It’s Too Late — With a Special Focus on Rare Earths and Battery Materials  \n🔎 Key highlights:   \nEfforts are underway to develop all-American supply chains for minerals such as rare earths\, lithium\, graphite\, cobalt\, magnesium\, and of course nickel\, copper and other more common metals. From an investment point of view\, the story is one of investment and return. But from a supply chain point of view\, the whole value chain from mine to end-product is in play – extraction\, pre-processing\, processing\, refining\, assembly\, manufacturing\, distribution\, and recycling.   \nUsing rare earths as an example\, my talk will address how the US can economically localize its production to eliminate dependence on trading partners like China.  \n✅Which extraction technologies are efficient at different scales  \n✅How far away multiple processing stages can be located without destroying margin   \n✅Whether refining can be environmentally safe and socially sustainable  \n✅What configuration of distribution centers maximizes market reach at economic cost  \n✅How to organize for recycling even before it’s required by law  \nMore info: https://www.criticalmineralsnorthamerica.com/   \nIf you are attending Critical Minerals North America 2026 in New York City and would like to connect with David during the event\, feel free to reach out anytime.

SUMMARY:🔋⚡Boston Strategies International at the International Battery Seminar & Exhibit 2026 
DESCRIPTION:Boston Strategies International is pleased to announce that our President\, David Steven Jacoby will be speaking at the International Battery Seminar & Exhibit 2026—the world’s longest-running annual battery industry event (founded in 1983) and a premier global forum for major developments in energy storage technology across consumer\, automotive\, military\, grid\, and industrial applications.  \n🔗 Event website: https://www.internationalbatteryseminar.com/  \n🎤Featured Session Topic: Predictive Analytics and AI in Inventory Optimization\, Demand Planning & Forecasting  \nAs the battery industry scales globally\, competitive advantage increasingly depends not only on chemistry and performance—but on the ability to execute complex supply chains reliably under volatility. Battery value chains face long lead times\, capacity constraints\, high working capital intensity\, and high penalties for stockouts\, delays\, and quality disruptions.  \nThis faculty session focuses on how organizations can apply predictive analytics and AI to strengthen decision-making across demand sensing\, forecasting\, inventory\, supplier risk\, and operational planning.  \n📌Key topics include:  \n\nAI-driven forecasting methods\, including time-series approaches (e.g.\, modern neural network approaches such as LSTM) \n\n\nPredictive inventory optimization: safety stock\, reorder points\, and multi-echelon strategies \n\n\nContinuous sensing & response systems to reduce the bullwhip effect \n\n\nEarly risk detection models to predict shortages and disruption \n\n\nPractical implementation roadmaps: digital architecture\, governance\, and adoption hurdles \n\nThe course draws on real-world use cases and case studies across leading organizations and supply chain innovators.  \nIf you are attending the International Battery Seminar & Exhibit 2026 and would like to connect with David Steven Jacoby or the Boston Strategies team\, please feel to reach out anytime.

SUMMARY:Boston Strategies at the 2026 NAPE Expo LP Summit (Houston) 
DESCRIPTION:⛽⚡⛏️Oil\, gas\, power and minerals are essential parts of nearly every supply chain\, whether the end product is a good\, a service\, or a solution.  \nWe at Boston Strategies always look forward to developing supply chain strategies that can boost the viability and profitability of oil & gas\, critical minerals\, geothermal\, data center\, and renewable energy deals at the 2026 NAPE Expo LP Summit in Houston.  \nBoston Strategies will be there advising asset owners\, investors and attorneys about:  \n🔶How alternative supply chains configurations can jack project returns \n🔶How to structure equipment and service supply contracts to minimize liability \n🔶Where exposure to supply chain risk is eroding returns on existing projects and how to reduce it \nAt Boston Strategies International\, we turn operations and supply chains into a recurring stream of positive cash flow. If you’re attending NAPE Expo LP Summit or have these concerns\, feel free to reach out.  \nPhoto Credit:: Ricardo Góm

SUMMARY:🔋⚡Boston Strategies at NEI’s Nuclear Energy Financing Summit — New York City
DESCRIPTION:Boston Strategies will be attending the Nuclear Energy Institute’s Nuclear Energy Financing Summit (NEI) in New York City on January 27\, 2026—a critical forum for accelerating investment in nuclear energy.  \nAs global electricity demand rises sharply—driven by the AI revolution\, electrification\, and clean energy targets—nuclear power is increasingly seen as an essential solution. Financing new nuclear projects\, however\, depends on solving one core issue: cost overruns\, which are often rooted in supply chain risk.  \n📉Cost overruns remain the main reason more new plants have not been built. In most cases\, these overruns are caused by supply chain volatility\, including long lead items\, constrained manufacturing capacity\, price escalation\, and procurement delays.  \nReducing supply chain risk is one of the most direct ways to make nuclear projects bankable.  \nBoston Strategies provides a structured and proven process\, supported by a specialized software tool\, to de-risk nuclear plant supply chains at the Bill-of-Materials (BoM) level\, enabling early intervention and capital protection.  \nOur approach helps stakeholders:  \n\nPredict supply price escalation throughout the Bill of Material \n\n\nAnticipate material\, component\, and service shortages \n\n\nQuantify capital at risk \n\n\nTake mitigation actions early to protect returns \n\nIf you would like to discuss nuclear financing\, supply chain resilience\, or localization strategies\, please reach out to schedule a meeting.

SUMMARY:WQHS Radio Interview on Reinventing the Energy Value Chain
DESCRIPTION:Harsha Ravindran from the University of Pennsylvania’s WQHS Student Radio show Changing Reality interviews David Steven Jacoby on his book Reinventing the Energy Value Chain\, why the success of the energy transition depends on strategic supply chain management\, and where investors can earn the greatest return on capital employed. Dr. Waddah S. Ghanem Al Hashmi\, PhD\, Senior Director\, Emirates National Oil Company (ENOC) further defines the stakeholders of the energy transition: “Academics\, energy policy makers\, energy economists\, and investment advisors\, as well as the current and future executives of the energy industry could make good use of this book. I see it also as a sound reference for the energy researchers in universities as well as energy and sustainability research institutes [and] for those working in the supply and demand spaces and in every part of supply chain including producers\, suppliers and distributors of energy.” All of us are relying on bold and forward-thinking supply chain management to reach net zero emissions. Let’s get it right.
