Europe’s battery recycling industry is entering a decisive phase. While volumes are growing, the market for recycled battery raw materials remains opaque and illiquid. Bilateral trading, limited transparency, and the absence of accepted reference prices constrain price discovery, financing, and long-term investment.

In this MetalshubTalks episode, we explore:

• Why liquidity is the missing ingredient for sustainable growth in Europe’s battery recycling market
• How transparent digital trading improves market confidence, price discovery, and financing conditions
• What a mature recycling raw materials market must deliver in practice, from standardisation and compliance to efficient cross-border trading
• What recent digital transactions already prove, including battery black mass and NCM hydroxide trades that show compliant, transparent, and efficient recycling material trading is possible today

MetalshubTalks host, Samir Jaber, will be joined by Dr Frank Jackel, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Metalshub, and Maciej Mikulicz, Managing Director and COO at Royal Bees.

Together, they will discuss how early participation and committed liquidity can shape market structure, establish standards, and define long-term positioning as Europe’s battery recycling market matures.

Join the conversation and help shape Europe’s battery recycling market.

This session is designed for battery recyclers, traders, downstream buyers, and industry stakeholders who want to actively shape Europe’s battery recycling market rather than wait for it to evolve on its own.
