Program

The tentative schedule for the two-day meeting can be found below. All times are in Riga local time (UTC+3). Informal items marked with an asterisk (*) are optional.
The panelists have collectively identified a number of challenges in the context of ionic liquid chemistry and ranked them by importance and feasibility. Each panelist will address one of these challenges during their 20 min talk, followed by a 10 min discussion session during which online participants can submit questions or comments via chat. The meeting will be recorded for internal use to facilitate debriefing.
