We are delighted to be hosting this conference at Quebec City from June 11^th to June 14^th 2025 and would like to extend a warm welcome to all our speakers, sponsors and conference delegates.  This is the second iteration of this meeting, the first one in Canada, after the inaugural event in St-Andrews in 2022.  We hope this edition will continue to strengthen the bonds and friendship between UK and Canadian chemists. We are excited to showcase the impact that inorganic chemistry has on diverse fields such as supramolecular chemistry and materials development to main group chemistry and catalysis, including bioinorganic chemistry, energy and environmental sciences.
