WMC (World Materials Conference) was initiated and hosted by the C-MRS. The first conference took place in Shenzhen, China, in 2023, attracting top materials science experts globally. The second conference was successfully held in Guangzhou, China, showcasing China's leadership in the field of materials science. As the flagship conference of C-MRS, the World Materials Conference attracts thousands of international experts every year, promoting innovation and communication in global materials science.

WMS (World Materials Summit) is an international conference jointly initiated by the C-MRS, the European Materials Research Society (E-MRS), and the International Union of Materials Research Societies (IUMRS) in 2007. The first summit was held in Lisbon, Portugal, the second in Suzhou, China, and the third in Washington, USA. The summit has gradually become a major platform for the global materials science community. The 9th World Materials Summit will be held in 2025 in Guilin, China, and is expected to attract even more international scholars.

IUMRS-ICA (International Union of Materials Research Societies Internation Conference in  Asia ) was initiated in 1993 by the Chinese Materials Research Society (C-MRS) in collaboration with materials research societies from Japan, South Korea, India, and other countries, proposing the idea to the International Union of Materials Research Societies (IUMRS). The first conference was held aboard the "Xiling" cruise ship between Wuhan and Chongqing. The 24th conference in 2023 was successfully held in Japan, the 25th conference in 2024 will take place in India, and the 26th conference (IUMRS-ICA 2025) will be grandly held in Guilin, China.

This conference will bring together the 3rd World Materials Conference, the 9th World Materials Summit, and the 26th IUMRS-ICA organized by C-MRS. It will be held from 14-17 October 2025, in Guilin, China, gathering top scholars and researchers from the global materials science and technology fields. The event will showcase the latest scientific achievements and technological breakthroughs, collectively advancing the future development of global materials science.
