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 Columbia Global Energy Summit (Columbia University SIPA | New York City 
DESCRIPTION:🌍⚡ Boston Strategies International looks forward to attending the Columbia Global Energy Summit (Columbia University SIPA | Center on Global Energy Policy) in New York City.  \nThis year’s theme — Energy Security and the Transition amid Geopolitical Turbulence — could not be more timely. Energy is no longer “just” a market issue. It has become a security issue\, an industrial policy issue\, and a supply chain issue — all at the same time. It is rapidly becoming a core pillar of:  \n🔹 National security\n 🔹 Industrial competitiveness\n 🔹 Infrastructure resilience\n 🔹 Supply chain independence\n 🔹 Capital allocation decisions  \n➡️ The “new world order” isn’t only about diplomacy — it’s increasingly about who controls upstream resources\, who can build infrastructure fastest\, and who can execute resilient supply chains under uncertainty.  \nAt Boston Strategies International\, this is exactly the space we work in — where energy security\, geopolitics\, project finance\, and execution reality meet.  \nBoston Strategies International helps clients:\n 🔹 secure critical materials\, equipment\, and services early\n 🔹 quantify cost escalation + schedule risk before it becomes value destruction\n 🔹 strengthen bankability by proving supply availability and delivery confidence\n 🔹 build resilient sourcing strategies that withstand geopolitical shocks\n 🔹 implement end-to-end supply chain de-risking at the bill-of-materials level  \nBecause in today’s environment\, energy transition success doesn’t come down to ambition alone — it comes down to reliable delivery.  \nFor organizations attending the Summit and interested in discussing more about Energy Security or transition strategies\, reach out to Boston Strategies International to connect.  \nMore info: https://www.energypolicy.columbia.edu/events/2026-columbia-global-energy-summit/

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.
