As part of its mission, GFM, together with its members, is committed to bringing mathematics and mathematical physics closer to society at large, be it through organisation and sponsorship of outreach activities such as “getting to know a scientist” events, be it through collaboration with industrial and commercial partners, as exemplified by the European Study Groups with Industry.
If you are interested in participating in, or receiving support for, such an event, please contact Ana Bela Cruzeiro or James Kennedy for more information.
