The Fπ symposium is a biennial international event dedicated to diverse aspects of functional materials with π-electrons. Over the years, the Fπ symposium has become one of the major conferences in the area of organic optoelectronics and related fields, gathering researchers from all over the world to share their latest results and to promote networking among the participants.

The Fπ16 is expected to attract 500–600 participants to discuss their new achievements in the fields including: design and synthesis of materials, energy harvesting/conversion/storage, light-emitting/detecting systems, electronics/ionics, and emerging applications.
