What is PERUMIN Hub?

More than a contest, PERUMIN Hub is an open innovation program that promotes real connections between the mining industry and innovative proposals, giving value to the latter, as a possible solution to the great challenges of the sector; on environment and sustainability, shared value and mining 4.0. 

This initiative is the result of an alliance between the Peruvian Institute of Mining Engineers (IIMP) and the Mining Innovation Hub, institutions committed to charting a course to position mining as a sector that innovates in the community and guide innovators, facilitating their growth, consolidation, and commercial take-off in the mining sector.
