It is being held at the University of Palermo and it will end on 14th September the international colloquium on econophysics.

Econophysics Colloquium is an annual meeting on Econophysics that brings together physicists, economists and practitioners to discuss statistical methods, quantitative measures, modelling approaches, numerical simulations and non-conventional data mining methods applied to financial, economic, and social systems.

It is a great achievement to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of a new and innovative science in Palermo.

Econophysics Colloquium 2018 aims to stimulate presentation and discussion of theories, methods and models developed in research areas like physics, mathematics, computer science, social sciences, and engineering. Econophysics COlloquium 2018 will promote the opportunity of meeting with people belonging to different scientific fields who are interested in interdisciplinary cooperation. This is the twentieth year of this colloquium and for the first time in the short history of the Econophysics, Palermo hosts this conference. The rooms of the department of Physics and Chemistry of the University of Palermo offer place for the event. The Econophysics is a new science created by the mix between Physics and Economy and actually the main purpose is to structure the basis of this new science.
