ForTIA

The Formal Techniques Industry Association (ForTIA) aimed to support the industrial use of formal methods under the umbrella organization of Formal Methods Europe. It was founded in 2003 through the initial efforts of Dines Bjørner and was chaired by Anthony Hall and Volkmar Lotz among others. Its scope was international and membership was by company. It organized meetings, especially in conjunction with conferences, for instance, industry days at the FM conferences organized by FME.[3][4]
