This conference is designed for young professionals applying their mathematical skills to problems in industry and society. A variety of talks will be given by people applying mathematics in this way. An assortment of workshops will be held throughout the day on topics such as business and personal skills as well as mathematical interest topics.
Dr Hannah Fry, lecturer at University College London, will be providing our key-note speech! She is well known for her appearances on BBC TV and radio.

Suggested Hotels
The Awentsbury Hotel is located near to Selly Oak, where the post-conference social will be. Birmingham City Centre is only a short train ride from both the University and Selly Oak, so you may prefer one of the following:
Ibis, a budget hotel.
Jury’s Inn, a relatively slick hotel.
VenueBirmingham for accommodation close to the University
Trivago also has a range of hotels in Birmingham.

The ECM Branch
The Early Career Mathematicians’ (ECM) Branch is designed for those with a maths degree who are within the first 15 years of graduating, or, those without a degree who are within the first 15 years of membership. The ECM group has been set up to engage and empower ECM, and students of mathematics at university, to provide them with support and an opportunity to network.
The ECM Branch holds conferences twice a year which provide an opportunity for mathematicians across industry, academia and university to meet. It offers a range of mathematical presentations and activities for attendees to participate in.
