ACS Spring 2026

Atlanta, US
March 23, 2026

ACS Spring 2026 in Atlanta (and online) is one of the few meetings where you can experience the full spectrum of modern chemistry in one place: cutting‑edge science, career development, industry partners, and real conversations with the teams building the tools you use every day. If you care about faster route design, greener synthesis, or getting more impact from your time at the bench, it’s an event that will repay the trip.

In short, ACS Spring gives you the breadth of the community; Booth #1225 and our Expo Theater talks give you depth on how to change the way you plan and execute synthesis. If you’re attending anyway, carve out an hour for one of the talks and a stop at the booth—you’ll leave with concrete ways to save time, design greener routes, and make your next synthetic challenge faster, greener, and a lot more rewarding.

We’ll also be on stage in the Expo Theater, right in the middle of the exhibition floor:

  • Monday, 3/23, 11:30 AM – 12:20 PM
     

In this session titled "Smarter Chemistry in Action: Digital Tools for Modern Synthesis" you can explore how our digital chemistry tools support smarter synthesis, from retrosynthetic route planning to AI-assisted catalyst screening & optimization. These tools help de-risk pathway selection, improve data quality, and accelerate the transition from idea to the bench, including examples of how predictive chemistry can be enhanced with real experimental context.
