Wir haben die Vereinigung für Chemie und Wirtschaft als Fachgruppe der GDCh gegründet. Sie ging nach dreijähriger Aufbauarbeit aus der Arbeitsgemeinschaft "Chemie und Wirtschaft" hervor.

Unsere Vision ist die Verbindung von Naturwissenschaften, insbesondere Chemie, und Wirtschaftswissenschaften. Ein wichtiges Ziel stellt hierbei die Ausbildung eines internationalen chemiewirtschaftlichen Netzwerkes dar. Unser Profil bietet weitere Informationen über Ziele und Zweck der Vereinigung.

Durch die Vereinigung sollen sowohl Chemiker, Naturwissenschaftler und Ingenieure als auch sonstige mit der Chemie oder der chemischen Industrie verbundene Personen angesprochen werden. Dieses Spektrum findet sich im Kreis der Mitglieder unserer Vereinigung wieder.

Zur Erreichung unserer Ziele brauchen wir die Unterstützung und Mitarbeit vieler Einzelner. Es würde uns freuen, falls Sie Interesse an der VCW hätten, und wir möchten Sie ermutigen, mit uns in Kontakt zu treten.
