00:02Uzbekistan hosted the final stage of this year's Tashkent International Mathematics Olympiad,
00:07bringing together 350 students from 13 countries after more than half a million participants took part in the preliminary rounds.
00:16Organized by Nordic International University, the Olympiad welcomes students, teachers and international jury members
00:22for several days of competition and academic exchange.
00:26This is my third time going to this Olympiad. The problems, I think, have become more harder and harder, which
00:34I really love.
00:34Me and my friends shared with each other our solutions, our thoughts and our expectation about our scores.
00:45Distinguishing atmosphere of Olympiads in general, and I think that Tassimo gave this experience, gave this opportunity to feel this
00:54again.
00:55Tassimo is an emerging international Olympiad. It's very nice to see all of the hard work coming together,
01:03like organizational perspective, from problem selection committee perspective, and also from the students' perspective,
01:10that their hard work is going to be rewarded accordingly.
01:13For the students, the experience extended beyond the examination hall. Sports competitions, team challenges, and cultural activities
01:22gave participants an opportunity to meet peers from different countries and build new friendships.
01:28If you think from the perspective of the students, these activities are exactly what they needed to have a long
01:34-lasting, memorable experience.
01:36Individual achievement was also recognized. Bulgarian student Martina Krasimirova maintained her record at Tassimo, winning goal in her third appearance.
01:47And every time I win, I feel like I inspire some girls to try out and not be scared of
01:53math.
01:53The world algebra comes from works of Al-Kharizmi, a 9th-century scholar born in what is now Uzbekistan.
02:00His work laid the foundation of modern mathematics, and 13 centuries later, Uzbekistan is welcoming young minds from across the
02:08world to compete on that same soil.
