THE SPEAKERS SCTE ® PRESENTS: THE FUTURE OF TECH
Amanda van Dyke Founder, Critical Minerals Hub
Amanda is a senior investment professional with a unique blend of private equity, public equity and capital markets experience, specialised in junior mining and critical minerals. Experience in sourcing and structuring investments across the mineral commodity spectrum. Amanda founded Women in Mining UK and the ARCH Sustainable Resources Fund. As founder of the Critical Minerals Hub Amanda is committed to raising awareness of critical mineral supply chains, the role they play in the world, and the countries and industries that produce them. The Critical Minerals Hub brings together complete end to end critical mineral supply chains information through accessible media. Clearly articulating essential characteristics, end uses, the global market size, global reserves, mine production and locations, processing and refining steps and locations, as well as a vast resources library. In January 2026 Amanda will be publishing The Mineral Imperative, which makes the case that minerals underpin every modern system—from energy and technology to defence and infrastructure—yet are dangerously taken for granted. As demand accelerates and supply constraints harden, it calls for an urgent reset in how governments, investors and societies approach mining and material security.
