Abstract

Abstract On behalf of the Organizing Committee for IUPAC|CCCE 2021, I am delighted to invite you to the 51st IUPAC General Assembly (GA) and 48th World Chemistry Congress (WCC), in conjunction with the 104th Canadian Chemistry Conference and Exhibition (CCCE). The IUPAC|CCCE 2021 events will be hosted by the Canadian Society for Chemistry (CSC), the Canadian National Committee for IUPAC (CNC-IUPAC) and the National Research Council Canada (NRC). Canada has previously hosted the IUPAC GA & WCC in Vancouver (1981) and Ottawa (2003). The original plans for IUPAC|CCCE 2021 were for the events to take place in Montréal, QC, Canada, 13-20 August 2021. Unfortunately, as travel to Montréal are impeded by the global pandemic, all events associated with IUPAC|CCCE 2021 will occur virtually. As chemical sciences professionals, we know conferences are a key venue for professional development, networking, and scientific advancement, and we will work to ensure that these principles stand true for the virtual event as well. While not a replacement for in-person events, this new endeavour will synthesize the best of our in-person events, with the convenience and accessibility of a virtual event. Beyond that, a virtual experience provides unique opportunities to engage a global audience, reach more young professionals, reduce our environmental impact, and stay safe.
