What is the World Logic Prizes Contest ?
The World Logic Prizes Contest is a competition that will take place during UNILOG 2025 between winners of Logic Prizes from many countries. Each winner of a given country will have 30 mn (including discussion) to present the work for which he/she has won the prize in his/her country. A Jury of about 10 important logicians from all over the world will at the end of the presentations decide who is the winner of the Universal Logic Prize.
