The IAMAT (Andalusian Institute of Mathematics) and CTA (Technological Corporation of Andalusia) will hold between May and June a series of 5 events with more than 12 companies to promote the transfer and application of results from 25 mathematics research groups from 6 Andalusian universities to different productive sectors.
“The aim of this cycle is to add value to the business fabric and support innovation,” stressed IAMAT Technology Transfer Service Coordinator Tomás Chacón, who highlighted that, according to a recent study by AFI and IAMAT, “mathematics-intensive activities and their indirect and induced effects generated 16.2% of the total GVA of the Andalusian economy in 2019.”
Tepro, AGQ, Cajamar, Endesa, Emasesa, Wellness TechGroup, Cepsa, Rovi, Biomedal, MP and Ghenova are some of the companies that will participate in this cycle of events that starts tomorrow, May 7, and will end in June.
Smart agriculture, Smart cities, predictive maintenance in industry, biotechnology and health and digital twins are some of the sectors that can benefit from the application of research results in Mathematics.
The research areas in which the groups involved work are Artificial Intelligence (AI), Data Science and Optimization, Algebra and Cryptography, Image Analysis, Mathematical Modeling using Differential Equations and Transport Problems.
IAMAT integrates 230 researchers from 25 research groups from 6 Andalusian public universities: Almeria (UAL), Cadiz (UCA), Granada (UGR), Malaga (UMA), Seville (US) and Pablo de Olavide (UPO).
