Successful Edition of the Optimization Workshop Held in Uniandes! 

The Optimization Workshop: Theory, Algorithms, and Applications was held in December 2024 in Bogotá, Colombia, at the Universidad de los Andes. The event brought together a diverse group of researchers and students from both local and international institutions, with the goal of strengthening collaboration in the field of mathematical optimization and promoting research in the region, particularly among early-career scholars.

One of the keynote speakers was Professor Andrés Medaglia, Director of the COPA research group, who delivered a talk titled “Leveraging Shortest-Path Structures for Engineering Solutions.”

The workshop was widely regarded as a success, providing a dynamic platform for the exchange of ideas and the development of new collaborations in optimization. This event marks a significant contribution toward building a stronger research community in the field, both in Colombia and across the region.
