Operations Research towards Technology Transfer:

from Data to Actionable Knowledge

 

September 5th, 2019

Operations Research (OR) analysts use advanced mathematical and analytical methods to help organizations investigate complex issues, identify and solve problems, and make better decisions. 

The goal of this workshop is to bring together companies and researchers from academia to exchange ideas, knowledge and expertise, promote collaborations and outline the forthcoming landscape for OR driven innovation.

Practitioners and transfer facilitators in OR and Analytics, from academia, OR start-up/spin-off and intermediary organizations, are invited to present their experiences in exploiting the synergy of OR with data analytics, artificial intelligence and machine learning to enable more effective business decisions and more productive systems.
