We, the Senior Expert Chemists (SEC), are retired (or close to being retired) chemists, organized under the roof of the Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker (GDCh, German Chemical Society). Most of us have an academic degree. We have over 30 years of expericence in responsible positions in industry, academia, research institutions, or the public sector. We make that kowledge and experience available to the public free of charge. The focus of our interest is:
We feel fit and enjoy our work. After a long life in our jobs, we now have the choice to concentrate on projects that we like to do. We are independent and not obliged to anyone. We have connections and know the sector.
The SEC Annual Meeting is the joint identification project of all Senior Expert Chemists. The meeting takes place every one or two years at changing sites. Top-notch talks, ample time for discussion, and the chance to build and maintain networks attract over 300 participants.

Since 2007, six SEC Technology Tours took place. During the last excursions, retired members of the VAA in Hanau joined in. The visit of a high-tech enterprise is often combined with arts experience or hiking. Up to 40 persons participate in those excursions.
