The conference is chaired by B.V.R. Chowdari with Technical Chair Yuan Ping Feng, both from the National University of Singapore. Symposia will cover Energy/Water Aspects, Nanoscience and Technology, Functional Materials, and Bio/Soft Materials. Nobel laureate Alan Heeger (University of California–Santa Barbara) will present a plenary lecture on “The role of the Heisenberg unceertainty principle in

bulk heterojunction solar cells” as well as a public lecture on “Creativity, discovery and risk: Nobel prizes past and future.” Nobel laureate Yuan-Tseh Lee (Academia Sinica, Taiwan) will also present a plenary and public lecture. The first lecture is titled “Elementary processes involved in matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization,” and the public lecture will be on “Sustainable development of human society.” Other plenary speakers include Gabriel Aeppli (University College London, United Kingdom) addressing “The next life of silicon”; Andy Hor (National University of Singapore and Institute of Materials and Research Engineering

A*Star, Singapore), "Molecular design of catalytic materials through intelligent hybrid ligands"; and Helmuth Mohwald (Max-Planck-Institute of Colloids and Interfaces, Germany), "Films and capsules from polyelectrolytes and nanoparticles for biomedical and materials applications."
