The Klaus Tschira Stiftung will establish the „Heidelberg Laureates Forum“ as an annual meeting bringing together the winners of the most prestigious scientific awards in Mathematics (Abel Prize and Fields Medal) and Computer Science (Turing Award) with a select group of highly talented young researchers. The Forum has been initiated by the Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies(HITS), the research institute of the Klaus Tschira Stiftung (KTS) - a German foundation, which promotes natural sciences, mathematics and computer science. The Heidelberg Laureates Forum is modeled after the annual Lindau Nobel Laureates Meeting which was established more than 60 years ago to bring forward new ideas.
The agreement on collaborating in the Heidelberg Laureate Forum between the organizers and the award-granting institutions (Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters, International Mathematical Union, and Association for Computing Machinery) has been signed in Oslo on May 22nd on the occasion of the 10th Abel Prize Ceremony.
