4th International Natural Resources User Group Meeting in Mexico City

5th International Natural Resources User Group Meeting in Mexico City

3 - 4 June 2025

The User Group Meeting is a live two-day event with a full program of technical presentations, social events, and networking. A varied program of informative and practical presentations from our global users and technical experts from industry and research awaits you on-site in a beautiful setting.

Attendees will have the opportunity to share with other users during a series of interactive sessions, and will also get a preview of technological advances. One of our goals is the exchange of ideas and experiences with the community, so there will be time for Q&A as well as panel discussions, and opportunities for networking over dinner.
