Dear Colleagues,

​We are delighted to announce the first edition of MOFES’26 – the Conference on Metal-Organic Framework and Porous Organic Polymers for Energy and Sustainability, to be held from 12.01.2026 to 15.01.2026 in Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR), Bangalore, India. MOFES’26 marks the launch of a new platform highlighting the growing momentum and global interest in functional porous materials, serving as a dedicated forum to explore and advance the frontiers of MOFs and other porous polymers in the context of energy conversion, storage, and sustainability. In this rapidly expanding field, MOFES’26 targets to promote the interdisciplinary collaboration across academia and industry, fostering innovative ideas and impactful research. This conference will feature an exciting scientific sessions, including Plenary, Keynote, and Invited lectures from internationally recognized scientists, industrials partners, aiming to cover latest developments in broad field of porous materials including synthesis and structural design, advanced characterizations, catalysis, energy conversion, storage and environmental remediation and scale-up and real-world applications. ​Additionally, we are proud to host  several industrial delegates, highlighting the challenges and opportunities in translating academic research into industrial solutions. The MOFES’26 organizing team is committed to reflect an inclusive, diverse, and welcoming environment throughout the conference by upholding the values of gender balance, inclusivity, and respect for all identities and perspectives. We are excited to welcoming you to JNCASR, Bangalore, and to an energizing conference filled with knowledge exchange, meaningful collaborations, and connections, directing a more sustainable future.​​

 

Warm regards,
