50th World Chemistry Congress

It is our pleasure to extend a warm welcome to you for IUPAC 2025 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

This marks the first time that the IUPAC Congress and General Assembly are taking place in an ASEAN country, and this has created immense enthusiasm and excitement among chemists from this part of the world. The theme of IUPAC 2025, “Chemistry for Sustainable Future”, underscores our commitment to exploring chemistry’s pivotal role in addressing global sustainability challenges. In addition to the scientific sessions on various disciplines in chemistry, IUPAC 2025 also includes a special cluster of symposia on “Chemistry and Sustainable Development Goals (SDG)” focusing on chemistry providing solutions and remedies to SDGs.

As we celebrate the 50th Edition of the biennial World Chemistry Congress, we’ll also commemorate “100 years of Excellence in Chemistry Research and Innovations” at the 50WCC. Additionally, there will also be a cluster of special themed symposia covering topics such as gender, diversity, equity & inclusiveness, professionalism & code of ethics, young chemists’ networks, world chemistry leadership programmes, chemical weapons convention, emerging technologies & innovations in chemistry, and other relevant subjects.
