All IFSCC Silver and Gold Benefactors receive a ‘Benefactor Subsidy’ of CHF 1,000 (for Silver) and CHF 2,000 (for Gold) to apply towards educational events. IFSCC Public Relations Chair Simon Chan pools these subsidies to provide seminars in China by international experts. Former Chanel USA scientist Randy Johnson delivered five days of in-depth technical discussions and seminars in July, while in mid-September Fred Zulli of Mibelle Group Biocheimistry and Karl Lintner of consulting firm KAL’IDEES will conduct 2-day courses both in Guangzhou and Shanghai under the arrangement of IFSCC Benefactors Academy.
