The International Seminar on Mathematics in Industry 2026 (ISMI2026) is a premier conference that continues to champion the Quadruple Helix model of collaboration, fostering synergy among academia, government agencies, industry, and the community. The seminar serves as a vital hub to disseminate knowledge and share cutting-edge research across all fields of industrial mathematics and statistics.

Since its inception in 2013, ISMI has evolved into a prominent multidisciplinary platform, enabling mathematical scientists and industry practitioners to address emerging developments, innovative solutions, and the complex challenges found in real-world industrial problems. Building on the success of ISMI2013, ISMI2017, ISMI-ICTAS2018, ISMI2021, and ISMI2024, this biennial event has consistently strengthened the ties between the mathematical community and industry partners in Malaysia through various high-impact collaborative projects.

This year, ISMI2026 will be held from 2nd to 3rd September 2026 with the theme:

“Mathematical Foundations of AI Powering Tomorrow’s Industry”

ISMI2026 is proudly organized by the UTM-Centre for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (UTM-CIAM) and the Department of Mathematical Sciences, Faculty of Science, UTM.
