It is a pleasure to support the london publishing organisation, close to our headquarters in Yorkshire, UK."

Dr Tony Gough continues: "The event will bring together academic researchers, scientists and formulators from around the world, creating the perfect environment for the cross-fertilisation of ideas to inspire. The demand for a presentation in London has been high, despite the uncertainty that remains in some parts of the world, reflecting the prestige associated with attending the IFSCC congress. With the programme now announced, final preparations are underway and IFSCC 2022 will soon be a reality. We look forward to seeing you in London in September!"
