Centre de recherches mathématiques (CRM) and the Institute for Data Valorization (IVADO)

The Centre de recherches mathématiques (CRM) and the Institute for Data Valorization (IVADO) are pleased to announce that they will hold an in-person workshop in Montreal on August 21-25, 2023. The participants (company representatives, professors, and students) will gather in teams, each of which addressing a problem submitted by a company. The workshop will allow academic researchers to study real-world problems and companies to benefit from expertise in the mathematical sciences (including data science, optimization, financial mathematics, natural language processing, and so on). This kind of workshop is an incubator of collaborations between universities and companies and the workshop organizers expect that these collaborations will continue after the workshop. Industrial problem solving workshops (called "study groups" in other parts of the world) were first designed by British researchers more than 50 years ago before spreading to many countries, for instance Canada, France, other European countries, and Asia and Australasia.
