As chairs of the 23rd International Symposium on Homogeneous Catalysis, we are delighted to cordially invite you to the ISHC 2024 edition to Trieste. The ISHC series has been the prime place to discuss most recent advances in homogeneous catalysis. It has an outstanding reputation for excellence and highly engaged discussions, and it has long been a focal point for scientists at the forefront of homogeneous catalysis.

Traditionally, it has been highly successful in bringing together leaders from academia and industry, and the Trieste edition of ISHC is proud to keep up this tradition. ISHC 2024 will feature a spectacular line-up of keynote speakers from all over the world as well as slots for oral contributions. There will also be dedicated events to foster academia-industry interactions.  

A special feature of the 2024 edition will be the dedicated session in tribute of Prof. R. H. Grubbs, a giant in homogeneous catalysis who was actively shaping the spirit of ISHC over many decades. 

As by its tradition, the ISHC will be run in a single-session format (no parallel sessions), and talks will be followed by ample discussion time to spark inspiration and interaction. We look very much forward to welcoming you in the beautiful Trieste in July 2024. Please register to the newsletter to stay tuned about all information and follow us on Twitter at @ISHC2024.
