About

Following on from the success of previous events, the 2026 European Forum will gather stakeholders from multi-industry value chains to discuss how collaboration and partnership can help accelerate green and sustainable chemistry's growth and implementation. Responding to increasing regulatory pressures from the regulators, investors, and market forces; Change Chemistry will convene representatives from global companies, consulting firms, policymakers, governments, and non-governmental organizations for a two-day meeting exploring both the challenges and opportunities to advance safer and more sustainable chemistry in Europe and beyond.

This year's European Forum will be hosted by Merck KGaA at their Darmstadt campus in Germany on 13-14 October 2026.
