Each congress is memorialized by a printed learned Proceedings recording academic papers based on invited talks intended to be relevant to current topics of general interest.

At the 1893 World Congress in Chicago, Klein delivered a speech which included a call "Mathematicians of the world, unite!" The first International Congress of Mathematicians was held in Zurich in August 1897. The organizers included such prominent mathematicians as Luigi Cremona, Felix Klein, Gosta Mittag-Leffler, Andrey Markov, and others. The congress was attended by 208 mathematicians from 16 countries, including 12 from Russia and 7 from the U.S.A. During the 1900 congress in Paris, France, David Hilbert announced his famous list of 23 unsolved mathematical problems, now termed Hilbert's problems. At the 1904 ICM Gyula Knig delivered a lecture where he claimed that Cantor's famous Continuum Hypothesis was false. An error in Knig's proof was discovered by Ernst Zermelo soon thereafter. Knig's announcement at the congress caused considerable uproar, and Klein had to personally explain to Grossherzog of Baden (who was a financial sponsor of the congress) what could cause such an unrest among mathematicians.
