It is part of ISGS core missions to promote sol-gel science and technology in the scientific and industrial community and to foster communication through the organization of conferences. For this reason, ISGS is pleased to offer its support to events organized in areas related to the sol-gel field.
The decision to support and the nature of the support are left to the ISGS Board discretion. This decision will depend on the type of event, its size, its audience and the relevance of the topics covered by the conference for the sol-gel community
This support can take different forms:
