On behalf of the Romanian Mathematical Society, the founder of the IMO, it is my great honor to welcome you to the Junior Balkan Mathematical Olympiad. This event brings together talented young students from across the Balkans and from other countries all over the world, united by a shared passion for mathematics, teamwork, and the joy of problem solving. The Junior Balkan Mathematical Olympiad is more than a competition: it is a community where students develop their mathematical thinking, strengthen their confidence, and build friendships that last beyond the contest. We believe that supporting young people in discovering the beauty and power of mathematics is one of the most important investments we can make in the future. As someone involved in math Olympiads for the last 60 years, as a student, teacher and leader, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the local organizers and authorities in Buzău, and also to the participating schools, mentors, and all volunteers whose dedication makes this program possible. My warmest congratulations to all participants—may you enjoy the challenge, learn from the experience, and take pride in every step of your journey.
Radu Gologan, President of the Romanian Mathematical Society
