Hosted in MoMath’s brand new 36,000 sq ft home at 635 Sixth Avenue, the conference will gather exhibit designers, museum founders, and math outreach innovators from around the globe.

Highlights include:

• A panel of Fields Medalists, moderated by Steven Strogatz, discussing why math outreach is important even to top research mathematicians
• An opportunity to network with outreach experts, museum leaders, exhibit designers, and creative educators from around the globe.
• Your chance to be among the first to explore more than two dozen new exhibits at the National Museum of Mathematics.
• A truly New York experience, with unique social events under consideration including: an evening boat cruise past the Statue of Liberty, a World Cup Watch Party, an amazing evening at Monday Night Magic, and a group outing to a Broadway show.
• Perfect timing to roll straight from the conference into ICM 2026.
