As part of the IUPAC Global Women’s Breakfast event on 27 February for female chemists and supporters, a very enjoyable breakfast was held at Jack’s Coffee Lounge in Hamilton. This was one of 420 events held in 77 countries, with approximately 40,000 participants globally and we were one of the very first breakfasts to launch.
