The Centre de Recerca Matemàtica (CRM) and the Institut de Ciències del Mar (ICM) want to explore potential ways of collaboration. On one side, the ICM is dedicated to marine research. Under the motto “Ocean Science for a Healthy Planet”, the ICM conducts frontier research and fosters both knowledge and technology transfer on topics related to ocean and climate interactions, conservation and sustainable use of marine life and ecosystems, and impact mitigation of natural and anthropogenic hazards. In-depth knowledge, determined action, and coordinated management are essential to confronting these global challenges, thereby driving the sustainable development of humankind. On the other side, the remit of the CRM is to be a resource of excellence in mathematical research and training at an international level. Its specific aims are high-quality research of international standing in mathematics (including a special emphasis on real-world applications carried out in a collaborative or interdisciplinary context), knowledge transfer based on validated mathematical research (with special emphasis on concrete implementations of justified models that address emergent problems with societal impact), advanced training in the field of mathematics, through collaboration and synergies with other research institutions and dissemination of the advances in mathematics within both the wider academic community and society in general. To explore possible scientific cooperation, it was agreed to hold two two-day meetings where, first at the headquarters of the ICM and then at the headquarters of the CRM they will expose and discuss the research that is done at the ICM and how the CRM can help/collaborate with them. In this meeting(s), leaving aside the protocol acts, the goal is to promote the exchange of ideas, techniques and problems to facilitate the possibilities of matchmaking
