The scientific program covered the integration of Artificial Intelligence in financial modeling, stochastic control, systemic risk management, and Mean Field Games. Alongside general advances in quantitative finance, the conference addressed sustainable finance, particularly the mathematical and practical challenges surrounding Carbon Certificate markets.

Academic presentations and informal exchanges provided opportunities to discuss research and strengthen international connections.
