Event Details
To get the most out of the workshop, we recommend bringing a laptop. Throughout the event, we will showcase Gurobi’s latest tools and may offer opportunities to follow along with demonstrations, including building and refining an optimization model from a natural-language problem description. No complex setup will be required in advance, and as the event approaches we will share any information attendees may need to access the tools used during the session.
Join Gurobi on June 15, 2026, at the Hyatt Regency San Francisco Downtown SOMA, for a technical workshop focused on helping teams build, deploy, and scale optimization models faster.
This hands-on event is designed for data scientists, operations researchers, engineers, and analytics leaders interested in applying optimization to real-world decision problems. Whether you are new to Gurobi or currently developing optimization models, you will learn practical techniques and tools that accelerate model development and improve collaboration across teams.
The workshop will highlight recent innovations in the Gurobi ecosystem, including Gurobi’s GenAI-powered modeling assistant, explainability agent, and machine learning package. Attendees will see live demonstrations and participate in an interactive session where they can experiment with AI-assisted optimization modeling.
Participants will also have time to ask questions, discuss real-world use cases, and connect with peers applying optimization across industries. Lunch and networking included.
