Each year IUPAC endorses a large number of independently organized conferences, symposiums and workshops that cover a wide range of specialized topics in chemistry. Endorsement by IUPAC attests to the quality of the scientific program and indicates the host country’s assurance that scientists from all countries may participate. See program details. In addition, the calendar below includes webinars and workshops related to specific IUPAC projects or joint activities with associated organizations.

Catalyzing Chemistry Entrepreneurship

  • This event has passed.

WEBINAR Tuesday, Sep 10

7:00 am EDT or 1:00 pm CEST

The world benefits when the research output of a chemistry student is commercialized to give a useful product. This requires an entrepreneurial mindset and understanding of the requirements of starting and running a business unit. The objective of a project recently initiated by the Committee on Chemistry and Industry is to create awareness about “Chemistry Entrepreneurship” and motivate chemistry students to become entrepreneurs. The project will help create more awareness of the opportunities and challenges in entrepreneurship and build bridges between academia and industry.

To achieve this objective, a series of webinars with successful entrepreneurs sharing their learnings and experiences is being planned. The first of such webinar will take place on September 10. It will feature Javier García Martínez and be moderated by Miguel Jimenez.
