Gurobi Optimization, LLC, the leader in decision intelligence technology, today announced the release of Gurobi Optimizer 11.0. This advancement marks a significant step forward in solving real-world nonlinear problems with Gurobi.

With Gurobi 11.0, users can quickly identify precise, globally optimal solutions to complex nonlinear problems—from domains such as chemical engineering, electricity flow, and price optimization. Additionally, this new version delivers a key enhancement to Gurobi’s popular tuning tool, enabling teams to share resources across multiple users and jobs when tuning.

As with every major Gurobi release, users will experience a boost to Gurobi’s industry-leading solver speed. Compared to Gurobi 10.0, version 11.0 delivers the following performance improvements:

Algorithm

Speed-Up:
Overall (>1 sec)

Speed-Up:
On Hard Models (>100sec)

MILP

8.6%

12.4%

MIQP

12.8%

22.8%

Convex MIQCP

9.2%

18.2%

Nonconvex MIQCP

133.4% (2.3x)

480.2% (5.8x)

“For nonconvex problems, we achieved several key milestones, including being able to solve MINLPs to global optimality and achieving a 5.8x speed-up on nonconvex MIQCP,” said Dr. Tobias Achterberg, Vice President of Research and Development at Gurobi Optimization.

What’s New in Gurobi 11.0

In addition to speed enhancements, Gurobi 11.0 includes a full suite of new features, many of which are based specifically on user requests.

Gurobi Optimizer

  • Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) Problems: Quickly identify precise, globally optimal solutions to complex nonlinear problems.
  • Dynamic Distributed Tuning: With this key enhancement to Gurobi’s popular tuning tool, teams can now share resources across multiple users and jobs when tuning.
  • Improved Concurrent LP Controls: For both deterministic and non-deterministic LP, users can now select precisely which algorithms should be run in a concurrent fashion.
  • New SolutionTarget Option: A new SolutionTarget setting allows users who do not need an optimal basis to obtain faster solutions to LP problems.

Gurobi Cluster Manager and Compute Server

  • SAML Integration: Users can now enjoy centralized user access management and single sign-on (SSO) capabilities through Gurobi’s seamless integration with SAML-based identity management systems, in addition to existing support for LDAP.
  • Cosmos DB Support: Gurobi now supports Microsoft® Azure® Cosmos DB®, in addition to existing support for MongoDB® and Amazon® DocumentDB®, for enhanced flexibility when deploying compute clusters.
  • Usability Enhancements: The Gurobi Cluster Manager delivers a new look-and-feel and now offers username case sensitivity controls, improved date formatting, and support for the latest HTTP security headers.
  • Time and Memory Limit Enforcement: Gurobi Compute Server includes new parameters for enforcing time and memory limits.

“Our new global nonlinear solving capabilities will make a big impact for customers,” explained Duke Perrucci, Gurobi’s Chief Executive Officer. “Rather than settling for best-guess solutions, customers will be able to quickly identify precise, globally optimal solutions. This can translate into major cost efficiencies for organizations.”

Michel Jacyznski, Gurobi Senior Director of Cloud and Platform R&D, added, “With the addition of the SAML 2.0 authentication and the support of the CosmosDB database, we continue to demonstrate our dedication to seamless enterprise integration while providing a modern and user-friendly environment to deploy the Gurobi Optimizer.”

Gurobi will be hosting a webinar to discuss these new capabilities and how customers can put them into practice. To learn more about this upcoming event, visit gurobi.com/events.

Octane AI Launches Phoenix, an AI Quiz Builder That Builds, Checks and Improves Quizzes for Shopify Brands21.10.2026 20:15:00 EEST | Press release

Octane AI, the quiz and zero-party data platform for Shopify brands, launched Phoenix in October, its biggest release to date. Merchants describe the quiz they want or upload what they already have, and Phoenix builds it, checks it, personalizes the results and keeps improving it with experiments. One beta customer turned a single document into a complete product-launch quiz: “I attached it to Phoenix, and it built the whole thing, all the pages. It understood everything, not just the text but the logic behind it.” Across all live Octane AI quizzes, 15% of shoppers who finish a quiz place an order. Yet building one has meant hours of writing rules by hand, custom code for design and clicking through every path to find broken results. Phoenix handles those hard parts, from building a quiz to improving it after launch. “Since day one, we've kept track of every piece of feedback from our merchants: what frustrates them and what they wish Octane AI could do. Phoenix is the result, and it k

Cognite Earns Corporate Supplier of the Year Award from Marathon Petroleum Corporation21.10.2026 20:06:00 EEST | Press release

Future Health and Bridge for Billions to Launch Programme Strengthening Health Entrepreneurship in Emerging Markets21.10.2026 18:50:00 EEST | Press release

Future Health – A Global Initiative by Abu Dhabi and Bridge for Billions will launch a new entrepreneurship programme designed to strengthen promising health ventures in emerging markets and help locally-developed solutions reach more people. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20261021719421/en/ The first phase of the programme will target around 50 entrepreneurs leading late-incubation to early-acceleration ventures in Africa and Asia. Emerging markets are home to significant health needs and entrepreneurial potential, yet many promising ventures can struggle to access the capital, specialist guidance, and health-system connections required to grow. WIPO’s Global Innovation Index 2024 reported that Latin America and Africa together accounted for around 3% of global venture-capital deals in the first half of 2024, while venture-capital values fell by 19% in Asia-Pacific and 80% in Africa. At the same time, entrepre

Hephaestus Exits Stealth Having Raised $17.2M to Supply Rare-Earth-Free HTS Superconductors and Build Low-Cost Fusion Power21.10.2026 17:48:00 EEST | Press release

Hephaestus today emerged from stealth with solutions that address two of the largest cost drivers in fusion power: the high temperature superconducting (HTS) magnets that confine the plasma, and the edge-localized modes (ELMs – major plasma instabilities) that drive up the cost and complexity of conventional reactor designs. The company also announced the close of a new funding round led by CiRi Ventures. Hephaestus was founded in London in 2019 with a single mission – to help make fusion energy cheap enough to compete on the grid. Its AI plasma solver initially swept the full space of tokamak design parameters, unconstrained by the legacy designs and materials much of the industry is already committed to, and identified negative triangularity (NT), which inverts the D-shaped plasma used in most tokamaks, as the most likely configuration for low-cost fusion energy. Subsequent results from facilities worldwide, including the DIII-D, JET, and SMART, have shown that NT can deliver strong
