Formulate your innovation. Innovate your formulation - Formula VIII - Barcelona, 4-9th July 2016

Formula VIII conferences, as previous Formula conferences, aims at advancing our knowledge, sharing ideas and working together in the field of product formulation. This is a very wide field, highly multidisciplinary, with much interest from both academia and industry, considering that advances produce a great impact in daily life. Formula VIII conference will cover all aspects in Formulation Sciences and Technologies, from the most fundamental and theoretical to the most applied aspects. The headline of the conference “Formulate your innovation. Innovate your formulation” intends to stress that scientific discoveries and technical innovation are the driving forces to offer breaking new products to the market, satisfying continuously evolving customer needs.

The first Formula Conferences were created and organized by the French Chemical Society (SCF). Later, Formula Conferences expanded and become larger events, thanks to the incorporation of various European Societies, namely the British Formulation Group of the Royal Society of Chemistry (FSTG/RSC), the German Society of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology (DECHEMA, Germany), Scandinavia Chemical Societies (SP Chemistry) and the Spanish Group of Colloids and Interfaces of the Royal Societies of Chemistry and Physics (GECI/RSEQ-RSEF). Moreover, several companies (AKZO-NOBEL, BASF, BAYER and EVONIK also joined the organization, ensuring a truly and deep dialogue between Industry and Academia.

The Formula VIII Conference will be celebrated in Barcelona, 4-7th July 2016, following the past conference in Mulhouse (France) in 2013. Conference talks, together with poster sessions, will cover all fields in formulation science and technology and will provide cutting edge new aspects.

The main institutions that support Formula VIII are the Catalan Institute of Advanced Chemistry of Catalonia (IQAC-CSIC), the University of Barcelona and the Spanish Committee of Detergency, Surfactants and Related Products (CED).

Two other events are integrated in the organization and programme of Formula VIII: the 46th Symposium of the CED, and Nanoformulation 2016. Members of the organizing committees of these events are integrated in the committees of Formula VIII in order to achieve a most powerful event.

All participants will be welcome, wishing that their contributions and helpful discussions will greatly enrich the conference. Please take a look at his website, and consider the submission of an abstract and the registration to the event. We are very pleased to welcome you to Barcelona.
