B2i Digital adds 121 Mining Investment events as featured conferences

B2i Digital is naming 121 Mining Investment’s New York, Global Online and London events as Featured Conferences and expanding marketing support across the series. The move aims to put mining company management teams in front of institutional investors, family offices and private equity groups across a packed 2026-27 event calendar.

Why it matters: - B2i Digital is widening access for mining companies to its investor network, which it says includes micro- and small-cap investors across sectors. - 121 Mining Investment’s event series already connects hundreds of mining companies with nearly 3,000 qualified investors in more than 10,000 meetings, so added distribution could meaningfully expand deal flow and investor reach. - The partnership gives participating mining companies exposure to investors they might not otherwise meet.

What happened: - B2i Digital named 121 Mining Investment’s New York, Global Online and London events as B2i Digital Featured Conferences. - B2i Digital is providing marketing support for all three events. - The three events are scheduled for September 17 in New York, October 13-14 online and November 23-24 in London. - B2i Digital said the partnership is the start of a broader push across 121 Mining Investment’s 2026-27 event calendar.

The details: - The New York event is the BHP Xplor x 121 Mining Investment Showcase at Well& by Durst at One Five One, 151 West 42nd Street, from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET. - BHP Xplor is BHP’s nine-month accelerator for early-stage exploration companies and includes equity-free funding and access to BHP specialists. - The 2026 cohort is the largest yet and will present throughout the day with networking breaks between sessions. - Attendance for the New York showcase is by invitation. - The current cohort includes Discovery Genomics, FrontierX, Litchfield Minerals, Mineural, Orion Minerals, Otrera Resources, PT GeoFix, RadiXplore, Utah Geological Survey and VectOres Science. - Orion Minerals is listed as ASX: ORN and JSE: ORN. - The Global Online event will use pre-scheduled 1-2-1 video meetings and qualified investors can attend on a complimentary pass. - More than 40 mining companies were listed on the Global Online directory as of Sept. 14, 2026. - The London event will be held at Convene, 133 Houndsditch, London EC3A 7BX, and includes two days of 1-2-1 meetings plus expert sessions. - More than 150 mining companies were listed for London as of Sept. 14, 2026. - B2i Digital is the Official Marketing Partner for the London event. - B2i Digital’s media network spans 800+ news, broadcast and trade outlets, with a combined monthly audience of 330 million+, plus 1.7 million+ followers, 70,000 opt-in email subscribers and 235,000+ capital markets contacts. - B2i Digital is headquartered in New York City. - Discover more Featured Companies, Featured Experts, and upcoming Featured Conferences at b2idigital.com.

Between the lines: - B2i Digital is using the mining conference series to deepen its role as a marketing and investor-introduction layer for capital markets events. - The company is also extending the partnership beyond the three named conferences, with future 121 events planned in Dubai, Cape Town, Miami, Hong Kong, a spring London edition, New York and Dallas. - David Shapiro said the partnership fits B2i Digital’s strategy of connecting public companies with investors across markets. - Steve Davidson said B2i Digital brings North American micro- and small-cap investors who are new to mining into 121’s meetings. - The partnership also reflects a focus on pre-arranged meetings, where investor introductions can be more actionable than broad conference attendance.

What’s next: - B2i Digital plans to add all 121 Mining Investment events through September 2027 to its conferences page. - 121 Mining Investment has nine events scheduled through September 2027. - Additional stops include Dubai, Cape Town, Miami, Hong Kong, a spring London edition, New York and Dallas. - Investors and mining companies can register for the Global Online and London events through the links provided in the announcement. - The New York showcase uses invitation-only attendance, so participation depends on organizer approval.

The bottom line: - B2i Digital is turning 121 Mining Investment’s event series into a broader distribution channel for mining companies and investors, with New York, online and London as the first named showcases.
