We’re delighted that we can help the IMO bring young mathematicians from around the world together to celebrate a shared passion, to push themselves and to compete to be the best in the world. This year’s event takes place in Amsterdam in July and we’ll be watching out for the results with particular interest.
And I don’t doubt that quite a few Googlers will also spend some time in coming months trying solve the sort of mathematical challenges that will be put to the world’s young Maths Olympians.
