45th National Convention of the South African Chemical Institute

45th National Convention of the South African Chemical Institute (SACI-45) marks a long-standing series of scientific meetings focused on research in the chemical sciences performed in South Africa and further afield under the auspices of the South African Chemical Institute. This conference provides a platform for local and international chemists, including postgraduate students and postdoctoral fellows from Higher Education Institutions, Research Councils, and Industry, to present and discuss their innovative research across all chemistry disciplines. Delegates can network, exchange research ideas, uncover new research opportunities and collaborations, and expand their knowledge.

The Local Organising Committee is currently preparing a scientific program that will include plenary, keynote, and invited speakers who will cover a range of cutting-edge topics. The theme for the conference is Chemistry: A Window For Change, and it accentuates the transformative role of chemistry in addressing global challenges and fostering innovation for the change needed for a sustainable future.

The conference fees include a welcome pack, access to the conference venue and its facilities, the welcome reception, teas and lunches over the period of the conference,  poster session and braai.  Gala dinner, travel and transport is not included in the registration fee. For our industrial and educational colleagues, we have a special daily rate for Friday the 5^th of December at R1500. This includes teas and lunch, but none of the social events planned on the other days.

We look forward to welcoming you to the 45th National Convention of the South African Chemical Institute.
