10th International Forum of Materials Genome Engineering
Second Announcement
November 2-6, 2026|Jinan, Shandong, China
The International Forum of Materials Genome Engineering (ForMGE), founded in 2017, aims to advance the innovative research paradigm of materials science and accelerate the efficient discovery of new materials. Having been successfully hosted in Guangzhou, Beijing, Kunming, Mianyang, Zhengzhou, Hangzhou, Chongqing, Ningde and Xi’an, this annual forum now attracts nearly 1,000 experts, scholars and industry representatives each session. We are pleased to announce that the 10th ForMGE will be held in Jinan, China, from November 2 to 6, 2026. This event is co-sponsored by Chemical, Metallurgical and Materials Engineering Division, Chinese Academy of Engineering, the China Materials Big Data Innovation Alliance (CMDA) and the Chinese Materials Research Society (C-MRS), and jointly organized by Jinan Start-up Area, Shandong University, Shanghai Smartlogic Technology Co., Ltd., University of Science and Technology Beijing, Beijing Institute for Materials Big Data, Jinan Xianxing Investment Group Co., Ltd., Shandong Huishi Fund, Shandong Future Leading Private Equity Fund Management Co., Ltd.and other institutions. As the capital of Shandong Province, Jinan is known as the “City of Springs”, boasting a time-honored history and rich culture. It is a core regional hub for advanced materials, high-end manufacturing and technological innovation in North China. With excellent educational resources, national key laboratories and a comprehensive new materials industrial cluster, Jinan offers an ideal academic and networking environment for the forum. Following the consistent mission of the conference series, the 10th ForMGE will serve as a high-end international academic platform to share cutting-edge research progress, promote in-depth academic exchanges, and strengthen global cooperation in the field of materials genome engineering.
