Nearly 9,000 scientists and representatives of 44 member countries are currently registered as members of the club. The city of Busan was selected as the finalist in Korea, a prime candidate for hosting the next round of conference, since the city has started to work for the candidacy in 2019. From then on, Busan city has got into its stride, forming a TF to produce video ads and promotional films to become the COSPAR host in 2025.
