The purpose of this meeting is to catalyze discussions within the quantum chemistry community on the potential of new reusable libraries, following the main organizer's recent call to arms in J. Chem. Phys. 159, 180901 (2023). We welcome anyone interested in quantum chemistry software development to participate. While we especially hope to attract developers of existing program packages or open source libraries, our aim is also to enable the networking necessary to form novel initiatives that have the potential to revolutionize how quantum chemistry software is developed.
The meeting will be held at the Majvik Conference Center, which is situated in beautiful nature a half hour's distance from the Helsinki international airport. The meeting can fit up to 100 participants, and the isolated setting with full room and board will allow excellent opportunities to network with colleagues working within quantum chemistry software development.
We estimate that the registration cost will be around 400 euros including all meals. Participants will also have to book and pay for housing at Majvik, which will be 115 euros/night for single rooms, and 140 euros/night for double rooms.
