The EuChemS Chemistry Congresses are the pinnacle chemistry congresses in Europe. It unites the chemical community (from young scientists to leading experts) and fosters interdisciplinary interactions among them. The congress is a truly inspiring and instructive and inclusive experience for young researchers (like PhD students) as it includes a full parallel program by the European Young Chemists’ Network, focusing on topics like the development of soft skills, career development, grant writing, while also including the European Young Chemists’ Awards.

ECC10 – the 10th EuChemS Chemistry Congress is the biennial congress of the European Chemical Society. It aims to showcase cutting-edge research in all domains of chemistry, foster interdisciplinary interaction and collaboration, and support young scientists. The 2026 edition in Antwerp focuses on eight thematic areas, including sustainability, AI in chemistry, and societal impact—topics of high relevance today. The scientific program is designed to be inclusive, forward-looking, and impactful, with contributions from leading experts. The venue also reflects a commitment to sustainability and education.
