The Inorganic Chemistry Division of the Italian Chemical Society together with the Luigi Sacconi Foundation, on the occasion of the annual meeting of the Division, awards the Luigi Sacconi Medal to a scientist (Italian or foreigner) who has obtained particularly significant results in Inorganic Chemistry, the field in which Luigi Sacconi gave outstanding contributions.
 
The nominations for the award, proposed by the members of the Division, must be accompanied by a curriculum vitae of the candidate and the most significant motivations for his nomination.

The President of the Division will inform the members about the announcement of the award.

The awarded scientist will be nominated by the Council of the Inorganic Chemistry Division on the recommendation of a committee composed by two members of the Council together with a member of the Foundation.
