Message of Greeting International Mathematical Olympiad
The 50th International Mathematical Olympiad will take place in Bremen from 10 to 22 July 2009. It is a pleasure for me to welcome the most talented young mathematicians from all over the world here in Germany. Competitions like the International Mathematical Olympiad show that we are serious about promoting talent and giving young people an opportunity to develop successfully.
Young people who take part in a contest like this are not only fascinated by mathematics but also want to compare and compete with others. It will be an exciting time marked by mathematical excellence, exchanges and encounters, and hopefully also a time for forging new friendships. Our guests from abroad may also find an opportunity to get to know this country. Welcome all to Germany!
This is the 50th International Mathematical Olympiad. People who have been involved in the history of this important competition will join us in celebrating its 50th anniversary. I hope that this anniversary will offer an opportunity for dialogue and provide major stimuli for the future and for coming generations of mathematicians.
I would like to thank the many volunteers, whose assistance and support is essential for the Olympiad. I wish all volunteer supporters and the young contestants a good time in Germany and a successful competition.
Prof. Dr. Annette Schavan, MdB
Federal Minister of Education and Research / Bundesministerin für Bildung und Forschung
