INSTM Young Researchers’ Forum 2025
From October 9th to 10th, 2025, the "INSTM Young Researchers’ Forum" will be held in Naples, in collaboration with the Italian Chemical Society (SCI) Young Group.
This event serves as a platform for networking and collaboration between the youngest members of both the INSTM consortium and SCI, who specialize in Materials Science, Technology, and Chemistry in its various branches. Together, they form a critical mass of expertise that, if engaged, could greatly support the Italian entrepreneurial sector and facilitate the transfer of technology from research to industry.
The National Interuniversity Consortium for Materials Science and Technology (INSTM), based in Florence, is the largest consortium in Italy. It coordinates 53 Italian universities engaged in research within the fields of Materials Science, Technology, and related disciplines. The consortium has around 3000 members, including professors, university researchers, research grant and scholarship holders, and PhD students. The main goal of the Consortium is to provide organizational, technical, and financial support to promote both fundamental and applied research in the Materials Science and Technology field within its partner universities.
The SCI Young Group, with over 1500 members under the age of 35, is spread across 14 Divisions and represents more than a third of the Italian Chemical Society.
