The International Conference on Science and Technology of Synthetic Electronic Materials (ICSM) is the longest-running conference series in the field of conducting and semiconducting organic materials. Established in the 1976 alongside the emergence of highly electrically conducting molecular crystals and conjugated polymers, ICSM has grown to become the largest conference dedicated to organic electronics. Over the past four decades, ICSM has been instrumental in showcasing significant advancements in the field. It has become a premier venue for discussing the latest developments in organic electronics and photonics, encompassing synthesis, characterization, computational modeling, device fabrication, and real-world applications. We are pleased to bring ICSM back to Brazil for the first time since 2008, after 50 years from its first edition.
Over the years, ICSM has been hosted in various locations around the world, reflecting its international stature. The ICSM has been held at Siofok (1976), New York (1977), Dubrovnik (1978), Helsingor (1980), Boulder (1981), Les Arcs (1982), Abano Terme (1984), Kyoto (1986), Santa Fe (1988), Tubingen (1990), Göteborg (1992), Seoul (1994), Snowbird (1996), Montpellier (1998), Bad Gastein (2000), Shanghai (2002), Wollongong (2004), Dublin (2006), and Porto de Galinhas (2008), Kyoto (2010), Atlanta (2012), Turku (2014), Guangzhou (2016), Busan (2018), Glasgow (2022), Dresden (2024).
