Since the start of global recruiting in January this year, the organizing committee has received proposals from over 50 international teams which include over 150 participants. Many of them are excellent examples of cross–border cooperation with innovative and meaningful insights. The organizing committee expressed heartfelt thanks to the enthusiasm of all the applicants. As the size of the applicants is quite large, Group of Experts of the organizing committee faces enormous work pressure.But we still stick to respecting each proposal and considering carefully for all the applicants. So, YICGG2017 first round results release will be postponed to April 13. Please be patient and the organizing committee sincerely looks forward to meeting with you in Astana.
