After a successful first edition, the FMJH has decided to make these MathTech meetings a permanent feature, while evolving the concept over time if the need arises. The idea is to bring together PhD students and post-docs in mathematics with representatives from the socio-economic world for one day. The idea is to create another opportunity, based on « in vivo » testimonials, to showcase the mathematics doctorate as a passport to research or scientific management outside the academic world. A bit like the FEM at national level, these meetings are a strategic tool for the mathematics/business relationship at local level, but with a clear focus on the doctorate and the future of its graduates.
MathTech meetings 2026
The FMJH organize the "MathTech meetings" on January 28, 2026 at the IHES in the Marylin and James Simons auditorium. The aim of this day is to raise awareness of corporate research among PhD students and post-docs in mathematics.

When mathematics charts the course
"When GPS is no longer available, whether underwater, in space or in conflict zones, inertial navigation allows you to find your bearings by measuring movement. Positioning errors accumulate quickly, and while traditional methods based on statistical models can reduce them, they remain imperfect. At Exail - R&D Navigation, we are developing a recurrent neural network (RNN) guided by a Kalman filter to overcome these constraints and improve the estimation of stochastic processes. »
Mantra : "Conceptualise problems well to solve them better."

Optimal Transportation: From fundamental research to applications in finance.
"After completing my PhD in mathematics on optimal transportation, I spent a few years in academic research, then branched out into the world of financial markets, without really giving up research...
My career has since been divided between fundamental research and the world of derivatives.
I will briefly present the theory of optimal transportation, the mathematics of finance and derivatives, the bridges between the two, and the impact this has had on my career »
Photos and videos will be taken during the day and may be used as part of the FMJH's communication policy (website distribution, communication media, social networks, etc.). For any comments or further information, please contact us at: communication@fondation-hadamard.fr
