Information
ESGI (European Study Group with Industry)
is Europe's leading workshop bringing together mathematicians
and industrial companies. These week-long workshops have been
held annually since 1968 and were previously known as the
Oxford Study Groups with Industry, where they attracted
leading mathematicians to work on industrial problems.
In Denmark these workshops are at DTU.
Companies submit mathematical problems for the study group
to solve; often in the form of a modelling problem or an optimization
problem. Participants work in groups around each problem,
presenting the results of their efforts to industry at the
end of the week. A written report on each problem is later written
and given to the companies.
