Juan Carlos Guajardo (CEO of Plusmining, former executive at CESCO, ICSG, and Cochilco), Andrew Shaw (experienced in leading copper market analysis for major producers over many years), and Simon Hunt (CEO of Simon Hunt Strategic Services, and one of the most seasoned voices in copper market analysis) are joining forces (The Three Copper Musketeers!) to launch a new platform for insight and reflection: The World Copper Podcast (aka ‘Radio Copper’).

The three experts believe that both the metals industry and the financial sector urgently need deeper conversations and reflections on the future of copper in an increasingly volatile and fractured global environment. What has defined the last 40 years will not necessarily define the next 10 to 20 years as the world is undergoing a stark transformation.

Each 30-minute monthly episode will go straight to the point, offering grounded views on the structural forces shaping copper production, consumption, and pricing. From geopolitical risks to technological disruption, to China’s strategic role, and to the impact of industrial green policies, these podcasts will examine how macroeconomic and industrial cycles are redefining the copper landscape.
