Smart Chemistry Smart Future will highlight the strategic role of the chemical industry in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals

The chemical sector, as a leading RDI industry, plays a key role as a facilitator of innovations and pioneering technologies to meet society’s demands and achieve the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) set by the UN for 2030. This will be made evident at Expoquimia 2020, Fira de Barcelona’s International Chemistry Event devoted to the sector, which will be held from 14-17 September 2021.

Under the slogan “Welcome to 2030”, the project’s focal point will be an exclusive exhibition at which the leading organisations and companies attending will showcase the cutting-edge technological breakthroughs and innovations with the greatest development potential over the next ten years. The sector in Spain is already working on these to overcome the main challenges facing us as a society in the four major areas of Sustainable Development, namely the Circular Economy, Energy Transition and Climate Change, Health and Food and Digitisation and Industry 4.0 (Smart Digital Solutions).
