European Study Groups with Industry are events with a well-established international tradition <http://www.sportellomatematico.it/lists/lt.php?id=eEhVCUkESV0B>: enterprises and researchers in Applied Mathematics work and brainstorm together to solve real industrial problems. A Study Group represents a great chance for researchers that allows to: - Work on *cutting-edge* industrial problems, - Find *new connections* with industrial partners, - Explore *novel research lines*. The partecipation to the event is free for Academics. We particularly encourage Master Students, PhD Students and PostDoctoral Fellows to apply. Funds are available to support accommodation costs for a limited number of participant.
