Gurobi 11.0 Delivers Global Nonlinear Solving, Speed Enhancements, Dynamic Distributed Tuning, and Enterprise Features
4.12.2023 21:48:00 EET | Business Wire | Press release
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:

“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.

Hitachi Joins Anthropic’s Critical Infrastructure Defense Program9.10.2026 03:32:00 EEST | Press release
Hitachi, Ltd. (TSE:6501, "Hitachi"), today announced that it has joined Anthropic, PBC’s (“Anthropic”) “Critical Infrastructure Defense Program,” launched on October 8, 2026, as a founding partner. The program is aimed at strengthening cyber defense for critical infrastructure, including control systems supporting power, water, manufacturing, and transportation services. Infrastructure systems that underpin society and the economy cannot tolerate prolonged downtime, making it difficult to implement certain security measures, such as system shutdowns for patch deployment. At the same time, advances in AI are significantly shortening the time between vulnerability disclosure and exploitation, creating an urgent need to redesign systems based on the assumption that cyberattacks will occur. The program seeks to strengthen cybersecurity through rapid vulnerability detection and remediation by integrating Anthropic’s advanced AI models, Claude, into the products and services of trusted syste

Seiden Law LLP issues statement: Prosecuted by Press Conference: Declared Guilty Without a Charge, Yim Leak Family Asks UN Human Rights Experts to Hold Thailand to Its Own Treaty Commitments8.10.2026 19:26:00 EEST | Press release
Seiden Law LLP, chief global counsel to Cambodian businessman Yim Leak, announced today that Jared Genser, international counsel to Mr. Yim and his wife, has asked two UN Special Rapporteurs to send an urgent appeal to the Thai government. The request is made on behalf of the couple and their seven-year-old son. It says Thailand violated its international human rights commitments by announcing the family’s guilt before any court had tried them, and by freezing their assets, including their minor son’s savings, without a hearing. Six Official Statements in Nine Months. No Charge Filed in Any Court. Between December 2025 and September 2026, Thai officials described Mr. Yim as the center of a criminal network on six occasions: at two press conferences chaired by the head of the Thai government, in the House of Representatives, and in three government press releases. The head of the Thai government said the network had been “found to have committed” offenses. Asked about the suspects’ lawy
Sam Altman-Backed Meanwhile Raises $37.5M as Families Across Asia, Europe and the Middle East Turn to Bitcoin Life Insurance8.10.2026 19:12:00 EEST | Press release
Meanwhile, the first life insurer licensed to operate entirely in Bitcoin, today announced $37.5 million in new funding from its existing investors. Bain Capital Crypto led the round, alongside Haun Ventures, Framework Ventures, Pantera Capital, Apollo, Northwestern Mutual Future Ventures, and Morgan Creek Digital. Meanwhile, whose backers also include Sam Altman, has now raised more than $180 million. The round follows a surge in international demand for Meanwhile’s Bitcoin life insurance policies, particularly in Asia, Europe and the Middle East amid broader macro instability. In early 2026, Meanwhile launched BTC Life 1-Pay, a single-premium whole life policy built for high-net-worth clients outside the United States. It is the company's second product line after BTC 10-Pay, which is purposely designed for US taxpayers. As the company eyes further international growth, Meanwhile has signed 15 brokers serving wealthy families since launch, including in the insurance hubs of Singapore
