B2i Digital, Inc. has been named the Official Marketing Partner of the 121 Mining Investment New York conference, a two-day event scheduled for June 15-16, 2026, at Convene, 360 Madison Avenue in Manhattan. The conference, part of an international series that runs from London to Cape Town, will bring together over 70 mining companies and more than 300 qualified investors for more than 1,000 pre-arranged one-on-one meetings, alongside expert-led sessions on commodity outlooks and mining finance.
The lineup spans gold, silver, copper, lithium, uranium, and other critical minerals, featuring companies such as Andean Precious Metals, Argenta Silver, Centerra Gold, Century Lithium, Elevate Uranium, First Majestic Silver, Gunnison Copper, Korea Zinc, NovaGold, Serabi Gold, and West Red Lake Gold, among others. B2i Digital will cover the event across press and social media, feature key elements on a dedicated landing page at https://b2idigital.com/121-mining-investment-conference, and drive registrations and meeting requests from its investor network.
“Mining and critical minerals are a growing focus for B2i, across our conferences and the companies we work with,” said David Shapiro, Chief Executive Officer of B2i Digital. “121 runs one of the best rooms in the business for this sector, and we want our investors in it.” Steve Davidson, Head of Investor Strategy at 121 Group, added, “Our events already connect mining companies with a strong global investor base, and working with B2i Digital builds on that. They bring more investors who follow the space, and they help open it up to those who don’t know it well, but should.”
The partnership underscores the growing importance of critical minerals in the investment landscape. With global demand for metals like lithium, copper, and uranium rising due to the energy transition and electrification, mining companies are seeking access to capital and investor attention. The conference aims to bridge that gap by facilitating direct meetings between management teams and institutional investors, private equity groups, and family offices. Investors interested in participating can apply through 121’s registration page at https://newyork.121mininginvestment.com/page/investor-registration, subject to standard vetting and approval.
B2i Digital, founded in 2021 by David Shapiro, a former Maxim Group investment banker and Chief Marketing Officer, positions itself as The Capital Markets Matchmaker℠. The firm connects investors and companies through digital marketing, investor conferences, and direct meetings, supported by a proprietary network of more than 1.7 million market participants. It has served as the marketing partner for over 115 investor conferences. 121 Mining Investment, part of 121 Group and Hyve Group plc, has been connecting mining company management teams with qualified investors since 2014 through pre-arranged meetings and expert-led sessions across mining finance hubs.
The conference is expected to highlight opportunities in overlooked mining sectors, with Davidson noting, “Some of the most compelling opportunities in this market are the ones that get overlooked and putting them in front of the right people is what New York is about.”
