Exclusive Invitation to Propeller Club Port of Istanbul Monthly Luncheon with Prof. Dr. Ali Nesin

Dear Members,
We are delighted to extend an exclusive invitation to join us at the Propeller Club Port of Istanbul’s esteemed monthly luncheon. This month, we have the honor of welcoming the illustrious Prof. Dr. Ali Nesin, who will share his profound insights on “The Philosophy of Mathematics,” shedding light on the deeper implications and the foundational questions that mathematical concepts evoke.
Prof. Dr. Ali Nesin, a paragon in both mathematics and education, is celebrated for his pioneering efforts to demystify the most intricate mathematical ideas. As the founder of the Nesin Mathematics Village, he has imparted his life’s work to cultivating an appreciation for mathematics, guiding students and aficionados to probe the philosophical aspects that underpin mathematical thought.
This distinguished gathering is scheduled for Thursday, March 28th, at the Grand Hyatt Hotel. It promises to be an extraordinary chance to network and engage in profound dialogues on the philosophical undercurrents that drive mathematical innovation and inquiry.
As a luminary and advocate for accessible education, Professor Nesin’s contribution transcends teaching, reaching into the realm of philosophical inquiry. His dedication to the Nesin Mathematics Village and beyond has touched many lives through a pedagogical philosophy that champions critical thinking and a quest for fundamental understanding. The upcoming discussion will not only highlight the critical role of philosophy in mathematics but will also inspire and inform our approaches to complex problem-solving in various fields.
In line with our tradition of inclusivity and support for burgeoning scholars, we encourage you to invite dedicated students, particularly those benefiting from educational programs, to join us as your guests. In collaboration with the Association of Türk Üniversiteli Kadınlar Derneği, we are prepared to support the participation of a meritorious female student, providing her with an expansive educational opportunity.

Agenda: • 12:00 PM:
Networking • 12:30 PM:
