If you'd like to stay somewhere else, we recommend you make sure to book as soon as possible as hotels will fill up and become more expensive as the event draws closer. For those of you who are unfamiliar with Frankfurt, we would suggest avoiding the area close to the Hauptbahnhof. 

For the foodies among you, we have coordinated with top local restaurants, for example: 

• Margarete: "In the heart of Frankfurt's Old Town, right near the Römer and surrounded by museums and galleries, lies Margarete – a place characterized by urban flair and warm hospitality. Our philosophy is simple: We want you to have a great time with us! Whether as guests in the bistro or enjoying a five-course menu in the restaurant, while shopping in the Magazin, or when planning your event with us." (Credit: Margarete website) 
• Oosten Realwirtschaft am Main: "‘Fooding am Main’ combines high-quality food with a modern, cultural lifestyle. In the centre of Frankfurt, we are creating a unique environment where innovative cuisine, local ingredients and a relaxed atmosphere come together. It is an invitation to experience and celebrate culinary delights in all their facets." (Credit: Oosten website) 

Frankfurt is a vibrant city with plenty to do for everyone. If you have time in Frankfurt beyond the AGM, perhaps one or more of the following may be of interest to you:  

• The Senckenberg Natural History Museum has been highly recommended by one of our alums for both adults and children 
• If the Senckenberg isn't quite your style, you have 38 more museums to choose from -- all part of the Museumsufer Frankfurt (although not all are directly on the riverbank) representing nationally and internationally important museums and art galleries  
• Römerberg, the heart of the medieval "Altstadt" is always worth a visit, even though the beautiful half-timber buildings you view today are mostly reconstructed
• Palmengarten, the Frankfurt Botanical Garden, is likely to be an exceptional draw with the typically-mild temperatures of late May  

Please purchase your AGM tickets as soon as possible, but no later than Sunday, May 18th.

If you plan to attend any or all of the optional events, please make sure to add the items to your reservation as well:

Immediately followed by a special guest appearance and keynote by celebrated journalist and author

Sylvia Nasar

A Pulitzer finalist and winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award for Biography,  the book was adapted into a 2001 film that received four Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actress, and Best Adapted Screenplay.

 

The powerful, dramatic biography of math genius John Nash, who overcame serious mental illness and schizophrenia to win the Nobel Prize.

“How could you, a mathematician, believe that extraterrestrials were sending you messages?” asked the Harvard visitor to the West Virginian with movie-star looks and Olympian manner.

“Because the ideas I had about supernatural beings came to me the same way my mathematical ideas did,” came the answer. “So I took them seriously.”

Thus begins the true story of John Nash, the intensely human drama of a mathematical genius who, early in life, made an astonishing discovery and stood on the brink of international acclaim when he slipped into madness.

Thanks to the selflessness of his devoted wife, Alicia, and the loyalty of the mathematics community, Nash emerged after decades of a ghostlike existence to win a Nobel Prize for triggering the game theory revolution.

Sylvia Nasar’s now-classic biography, which inspired an Academy Award-winning movie, is a drama about the mystery of the human mind, triumph over adversity, and the healing power of love.

"A Beautiful Mind" on Audible, Kindle, and Hardcover

Sylvia Nasar was a New York Times economics correspondent from 1991 to 1999 and the first John H. and L. Knight Professor of Journalism at the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism.  Nasar broke the story of John Forbes Nash Jr. in the New York Times and achieved international acclaim for her epic biographical study, A Beautiful Mind.  Her biography of Nash, a mathematician, game theorist, and winner of the 1994 Nobel Prize in Economics, won the National Book Critics Circle Award and was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize. A drama about the mystery of the human mind in three acts, A Beautiful Mind inspired the eponymous Academy Award-winning movie by Ron Howard.    Nasar followed up this triumph with 'The Grand Pursuit: The Story of Economic Genius', a sweeping history of the development of modern economics. Sylvia Nasar grew up in Germany and Turkey, the daughter of a German mother and Uzbek father who served as the CIA station chief in Ankara. Nasar's work has appeared in the New Yorker, BusinessWeek, the New York Times Book Review, and numerous other publications.
