The year 2020, with the global disruption to normal work practices caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, showed the value in having good access to data and the ability to integrate it, build connectivity and forge new knowledge.
The President of CAS, a division of the American Chemical Society, has pointed to moa as an example of a company focused on breakthrough innovation, which has continued to benefit from CAS Registry®.
