Science and the Parliament 2026

Join us for the 26th annual Science and the Parliament event at Dynamic Earth, Edinburgh. Designed to foster close relations with policymakers and key stakeholders, Science and the Parliament is organised by the Royal Society of Chemistry, on behalf of, and in cooperation with, the Scottish science and engineering community.   The event includes a speaker’s programme of key note speeches and panel sessions including with MSPs from across the political parties, an exhibition space where you can network with colleagues from across the sector, an awards ceremony for young people, and an early evening reception. This year’s event will be focussed around the STEM Economy and Innovation.   A full provisional programme will be shared shortly along with speakers profiles.   Don’t miss this opportunity to network with colleagues from across the sector, share your work and ideas, and help push Science and STEM up the political agenda at Holyrood.
