The conference was organized in Prague, 10-14 Sep 2017, as the 81st Prague Meetings on Macromolecules, a series organized since 1967. It provided an interdisciplinary forum for scientists working in the field of molecular and polymeric materials with emphasis on the electrical, photoelectrical, and optical properties, phenomena, and applications. The main areas covered were the design, synthesis, processing, and characterization of novel functional organic materials and polymers, electrical, photoelectrical, optical and nonlinear optical phenomena, organic and hybrid electronic and photonic devices, and advanced materials and composites for biosensors, bioelectronics, and biophotonics. A particular session was dedicated to applications in flexible and wearable organic electronics and smart packaging, e.g., flexible printed electronics and photonics. The objectives were to promote an international cooperation of researchers both from academia and industry and to stimulate the research growth in the field of organic materials for electronics and photonics.

156 scientists from 33 countries participated at the conference. There were 8 plenary and 24 invited lectures given by world recognized scientists, accompanied by 38 oral contributions and 88 posters. Due to big expectations in the application field of large area printed electronics, wearable devices, printed RFIDs, displays, solar cells, and sensors, there is a growing demand to prepare polymers with better defined morphology and chemical and structural stability. Hence, improvement in the molecular design and new synthetic and processing routes is strongly required. The participation of specialists from the application field of printed electronics provided a necessary feedback for further development of new materials with desired properties.
