About

Under the auspices of CGI’26 (July 6-10, 2026), ENGAGE2026 on July 6th in London, England,  will again provide a multi-disciplinary approach from mathematics applied to computer graphics, computer vision and general computer science fields, where GA has strong potential to answer existing mathematical problems.

Geometric algebra is particularly well suited to allow cross-disciplinary solutions in software engineering as it provides an intuitive and insightful common denominator across mathematical disciplines used in a variety of applications. Understanding GA enables us to relate distinct, seemingly incompatible paths by providing a common geometric and mathematical base.

We invite original contributions that advance the state-of-the-art in both the application of GA and its instantiation in software and hardware. Full details for submissions to the first call for papers are available bellow

Keynote Speakers

Nektarios Valous, German Cancer Research Center

Nektarios Valous is a researcher at the German Cancer Research Center and the National Center for Tumor Diseases (NCT) Heidelberg, and the founding and executive editor of the open-access journal ImmunoInformatics at Elsevier. He is working at the intersections of computational biomedicine – applied mathematics and biosystems engineering – interdisciplinary physics with publications in 29 peer-reviewed journals. He drives cross-disciplinary initiatives, curates special issues, and organizes/chairs conference sessions that link computational methods to biomedical impact.


Sponsors of ENGAGE26

ORamaVR is a Swiss, deep-tech spatial-computing company that seeks to transform the landscape of global healthcare. ORamaVR commenced as a spin-off startup from ICS-FORTH and was co-founded by Dr. George Papagianankis, Prof. Eleftherios Tsiridis and Prof. Panos Trahanias, with a massive transformational purpose. With the most innovative low-code (and soon no-code Generative AI for XR training) MAGES-SDK platform, ORamaVR is democratizing the creation of high-fidelity medical XR simulations, making them more accessible and cost-effective than ever before.

         

GACRAC (Geometric Algebra Computing Research and Application Center) is a research center that focuses on advancing geometric algebra computing techniques and their practical applications, such as in spatio-temporal data analysis, GIS and Geometric Algebra implementations. It was co-founded by Dr. Dietmar Hildenbrand and Prof. Yu Zhaoyuan.  


Awards

We are glad to renew the Geometric Algebra Computing Award, designed to spotlight and encourage cutting-edge GA prototypes and implementations. Building on our commitment to innovation, we also continue to present the Best Paper Awards, recognizing outstanding research contributions.
This award acknowledges outstanding research paper and presentation contributing significantly to Geometric Algebra.
This award recognizes outstanding GA prototypes, implementations that showcase creativity and practicality.
Note that winners of both the Geometric Algebra Computing and Best Paper awards will receive a prize of 100 Euros. The decision is taken unanimously by members of the Local Organizing Committee
