AIA: More than 80 years driving the industry forward

EXPONOR is organized by the Antofagasta Industrial Association (AIA), a trade association with over 80 years of experience that brings together large mining companies and suppliers of goods and services in the sector. Through initiatives aimed at promoting innovation, supplier development, human capital and collaboration between industry, academia and the public sector, the AIA promotes the sustainable growth of the mining ecosystem and strengthens the competitiveness of the industry.

Its main initiatives include the Supplier Company Qualification System (SICEP, for its initials in Spanish), a platform that facilitates connection between mining companies, client companies and suppliers of goods and services, promoting transparency, the development of suppliers and the generation of new business opportunities.
