The Tenth Montreal Problem Solving Workshop is organized jointly by the Centre de recherches mathématiques (CRM) and the Institute for Data Valorization (IVADO). The workshop will bring together industrial representatives, university researchers, graduate students, and postdoctoral fellows.

Participants will work in teams, each of which studying a problem proposed by a company or a public or quasi-public institution. One of the goals of the workshop is to provide companies or institutions with mathematical tools for solving problems. The workshop will also allow researchers and students in the mathematical sciences (including data science, statistics, optimization, financial mathematics, natural language processing, and so on) to consider real-world problems. The organizers view the workshop as an “incubator” of collaborations between companies and university researchers; they expect the work carried out during the workshop to result in medium- and long-term projects, financed through various types of grants.
