The ORGMEIO (Master's Council) organizes every year a joint action for companies and institutions with students and their professors which helps to define collaborations and proposals for Master Thesis related to Operations Research and Statistical areas.

The meeting attracted the participation of 11 companies / institutions. A novelty this year was that each company / institution presented a poster together with brief five minute presentation of their proposal. During the meeting
