Dear Students and Parents, World Mathematics Invitational (WMI) is a prestigious international mathematics competition founded by Math Olympiad Society of America (USA), Korean Gifted Students Evaluation Association (South Korea) and Chinese Mathematics Association (Taiwan). It gathers institutes and organizations from worldwide that make efforts in promoting and popularizing mathematics, and is held in different country every year. By interacting with other math-loving elites around the world, students can expand their world view, experience different cultures, and advance their own individual development to face upcoming challenges. Edukultur Indonesia has been giving impetus to the quality of math education in Indonesia. We discover and cultivate junior math talents, and inspire their interest and potential in math. We hope to encourage students to participate in math competitions at home and abroad and widen their academic horizons. Consequently, they are able to confront challenges in the future, and to bring out their math talents to honor our beloved country, Indonesia. Competition Objectives World Mathematics Invitational (WMI) is an international math event. It presents mathematicians and mathematics educators a broad platform for exchange and interchange of experience and ideas. It is an activity that can be used to raise students' interest in mathematics and to explore and unlock their potential. WMI motivates math students to raise their logical reasoning, to acquire new mathematics problem solving skills, and to experience a sense of accomplishment. WMI allows them to do these through students from other countries and regions all over the world. WMI is not just about winning a competition, it is about cultivating future users of mathematics, mathematics researchers, and, in general, people who simply enjoy the beauty of mathematics.
