Due to the ongoing COVID Pandemic, the dates for the Germany Conference have changed.
The current plan is to hold the Conference from October 23 – 27, 2021.
The Fall Conference will be held at the Linder Hotel City Plaza in Köln, Germany, and will feature two full days of technical sessions for the PCM industry, networking with colleagues from around the world and the opportunity to explore emerging PCM technologies.
During the Conference, PCMI members will elect new officers and directors. The rescheduled vote will take place during the Annual Meeting, in keeping with the Institute’s Bylaws.
While we may not be meeting in person, PCMI wants to continue to provide you with exceptional technical programs that will expand your knowledge of critical aspects of the photochemical engineering process.
The PCMI Education Committee is pleased to invite you to attend PCMI’s new Educational Webinar Series, to run from April through September. These one-hour programs are designed to share information on key PCM processes. Click here for more webinar information.
We look forward to seeing you at both the webinars and Fall Conference.
