ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

Established in 1939, the Italian Statistical Society (SIS) promotes an International Specialized Statistical Conference on a specific topic every two years. The Conference focuses on both methodological and applied statistical research. The 2025 SIS Conference topic is Statistics for Innovation.

Statistics is fundamental to innovation, offering the tools to analyse data and uncover insights needed for informed decision-making and strategic planning. Innovations in statistical methods and applications enhance our ability to gather and process vast amounts of data, thus effectively leveraging knowledge. This leads to more informed strategies, fostering advancements and breakthroughs across diverse fields and domains.

The conference aims at discussing the state-of-the-art on these and related issues. It also aims to provide a forum where academics, researchers, and practitioners can meet to share experiences and discuss present and future challenges in this area.

SIS 2025 will be held at the University of Genoa in Genova in the period June 16-18, 2025. The meeting includes plenary, specialized, solicited and contributed sessions, encompassing both methodological and applied statistical research.

The main conference venue will be at Albergo dei Poveri, Piazzale Emanuele Brignole, 2a. It is located in the center of the city of Genova, very close to the Piazza Principe railway station and to transport and hotels facilities. Albergo dei Poveri is a monumental structure founded in the second half of the 17th century as a public welfare institution intended to accommodate various categories of disadvantaged citizens.
