Aim of the event

The aim of the event is to foster cooperation between industry and mathematicians working in academia. Within the Workshop (December 1, morning), several successful collaborative projects will be presented. These presentations will consist of a pair of talks given by a mathematician and a representative of industry. Besides mathematical and industrial perspective, the speakers are encouraged to describe the genesis and evolution of their project as well as gained experiences and benefits of mutual collaboration.

The Study group (December 1-2) will follow the Workshop. It will be organized as a 22-hour hackaton in which participants will work in groups on real-life problems. These problems will be presented at the beginning of the Study group. Participants will form groups according to their interests and expertise and will work on the problems with support of mentors. The groups will present their solutions at the end of the event.

Organization

The workshop is organized by the Institute of Mathematics, Czech Academy of Sciences and EU-MATHS-IN.cz.

Format

The Workshop will be held in a hybrid mode with both onsite and online presence. Online participation will be possible via Zoom, and the details for connection will be sent to the registered participants prior the event. Onsite participation includes lunch, coffee, and refreshments. The Study group will be held onsite only.
