Dear all,

We are pleased to announce the upcoming International Conference on
Variable Neighborhood Search (ICVNS) https://2025.icvns.com , which will
take place in Montreal, Canada, from May 12 to May 14, 2025, jointly within
the Optimization Days <https://symposia.cirrelt.ca/JOPT2025/en/home>
organized by CIRRELT <https://www.linkedin.com/company/cirrelt/>.

This event brings together researchers, practitioners, and experts
in optimization, heuristics, and metaheuristics, providing a platform to
discuss the latest advancements in Variable Neighborhood Search (VNS) and
its applications.

The conference will serve as a tribute to Pierre Hansen, the pioneer of
Variable Neighborhood Search, whose work has had a profound impact on the
field.

The event is supported by GERAD <https://www.linkedin.com/company/gerad/>,

Best regards,

Daniel Aloise
