In brief
We aim to promote organic chemistry and its application to the fine chemicals industry. We organise high-quality specialist symposia with internationally-renowned speakers around the world, and general overview meetings for students and organic chemists in academia and industry to refresh and improve their knowledge base and assist in their professional development.
We also work to raise the profile of organic chemistry and the fine chemicals industry with the general public and facilitate links between organic chemists in industry and academia, and recent graduates and their peers in industry and academia through the Group's series of meetings.
