Structures having Ricci curvature bounded either from below and/or from above in some sense have been at the center of intense investigations in the last ten years, the reason being the deep effect at the geometric, analytic and probabilistic level that this sort of assumption carries. The study of such bounds and their geometric and analytic effects therefore attracts a constellation of mathematicians with a diverse set of skills and backgrounds. The conference aims at gathering specialists from different sectors to foster communication between various (sub)fields of research. We aim at covering the synthetic side of the story, the non-commutative one, the regularity of Ricci-limit spaces and geometric evolution problems.
