August 2008
The European Mathematical Society is increasing its activities and its membership. We are working harder than ever to make sure that mathematics is represented properly when funding decisions are taken at a European level, and this is beginning to bear fruit. An example is the recent call by the European Science Foundation for proposals for research conferences in mathematics
Also, we now have 56 national member societies from all over Europe, which brings huge opportunities for collaborative work of all kinds.
We would like to increase our individual membership, which now comes with free access to the improved Zentralblatt
as well as our superb Newsletter
and many other benefits, as you can see from our new web site
Membership is not expensive, and joining is easy: you can do it either through the Swiss Mathematical Society (22 Euro per year) or on the EMS web page.
