The applications of Geometry to multiple practical fields serve to benefit not only the fields themselves, but Geometry itself as a source of inspiration and beauty. These applications are not always immediate and, as a result, they are often unknown or underestimated by many geometers. The present International Seminar on Applied Geometry in Andalusia, organized by two research groups supported by the Andalusian Government, consists of maximizing and propagating high-level mathematical applications of Geometry to other fields, including both the most theoretical(such as other branches of Mathematics or Theoretical Physics)and the most practical(such as Industrial, Medical or Material Science).The Seminar is divided into several mini-courses and lectures given by outstanding specialists, as well as other activities to promote the learning and exchange of ideas of the participants.
