The GEMS (GEometry MeetingS) series is a collaborative initiative supported by five Portuguese research centers, aimed at strengthening and connecting the geometry research community in Portugal. These regular meetings provide an informal and engaging environment for researchers to exchange ideas, present their work, and explore emerging trends in geometry, related areas and applications.
