Metals News Magazine August 2025

The global economy is undergoing a profound transformation, where traditional foundations of power such as abundant resources, mass production, and cheap labor are no longer sufficient to meet the demands of growth and competitiveness. Success in the current century depends on the ability to attract investment, leverage technology intelligently, and design flexible, forward-looking industrial policies.

In this regard, issue 29 of Metals News is dedicated to these topics. The first section focuses on investment attraction, the second on artificial intelligence, and the third on emerging industrial policies. Today, investment reflects trust and a long-term vision rather than merely financial flows, and countries that demonstrate transparency, innovation, and strong governance stand out in the global market. Artificial intelligence enhances productivity and competitiveness, while modern industrial policies have become tools for smarter, cleaner, and more resilient production. The combination of these three factors will determine the position of nations in the future global economy.
