Can social issues be solved by mathematical science!? - Connecting Corporate Issues and Mathematical Sciences -

Continuing from last year, we will hold a symposium to explore the possibility of solving social issues through mathematical research. Last year, under the theme of "Social Implementation of Mathematical Research!? - Attempts and Challenges -", we held talks by mathematical scientists working on mathematical problems extracted from corporate issues, and saw that efforts to address issues of interest at the individual researcher level are becoming more active. This year, under the broader theme of "Connecting" mathematical scientists and companies, we will introduce not only researchers who are strongly promoting joint research with companies, but also activities of companies who are collaborating with mathematical scientists from the standpoint of companies. We would like to organize a panel session to share with the participants not only the results of their activities but also the difficulties of the collaboration and the exchange of opinions on how to solve the problems. We are sincerely looking forward to the active participation of corporate researchers and mathematical scientists who are interested in such activities.
