Fifth France’s International* C*onference on* C*omplex* S*ystems May 21 – 23, 2025 Bordeaux, France *FRCCS 2025* <https://iutdijon.u-bourgogne.fr/ccs-france/> The fifth edition of France’s International Conference on Complex Systems (FRCCS 2025) will be held in Bordeaux, France. This single-track international conference serves as a platform to foster interdisciplinary exchanges among researchers from various scientific disciplines and diverse backgrounds, including sociology, economics, history, management, archaeology, geography, linguistics, statistics, mathematics, and computer science. FRCCS 2025 allows participants to meet yearly in France, exchange and promote ideas, and facilitate the cross-fertilization of recent research work, industrial advancements, and original applications. Moreover, the conference emphasizes research topics with a high societal impact, showcasing the significance of complexity science in addressing complex societal challenges.
