SCHB leads the efforts of the ACS to assist in the formation, development, and growth of start-ups and small chemical businesses. In addition to our regular collaborations at ACS local, regional, and national meetings, in 2020 we started, and in 2021 we continued, our weekly virtual <i>Discuss Business/Happy Hour</i> sessions that married technical content with an informal social setting. SCHB sessions feature the real stories of chemical entrepreneurs, as well as guidance on the best practices in growing and developing your business. SCHB partnerships with other ACS technical divisions, local sections, and committees on contemporary topics of interest facilitate dialog and synergy amongst business-minded chemists, e.g., SCHB's activity in the ACS webinar series, followed by <i>Continue the Conversation</i>. We also support our members through connection with a strong network of individuals to draw inspiration from and conduct business with. Consider learning more about the benefits of SCHB programs, membership and sponsorship. The elements of your next successful business can be found with SCHB.
