Non-commutative geometry could be regarded as a special case of quantization, and the work of Connes and his collaborators shows that non-commutative geometry represents the deepest example of quantization. Notions from the more general quantization, including the theory of quantum groups, are having an increasingly important effect on the geometric theory. These two topics have been scheduled in a joint workshop because the confluence of their research is likely to influence future advances in both fields.
