EURO-k Conferences

EURO-k conferences are the major EURO events. They are international forums for scientific communication and cooperation among Operational Researchers, not only from European countries, who are active in all the diverse areas of OR, and to serve the free exchange of new ideas and promising research results. Moreover,

• they are broadly oriented and have recently attracted more than 2,000 participants,
• they take place yearly, with the possible exception of the years when there is an IFORS triennial conference. Information about past conferences is available,
• they are hosted by EURO member societies. They are usually held in a university or similar type of institution,
• they usually take place in summer during the first half of July.

EURO-k conferences feature multiple activities around OR, including scientific presentations of the following types:

• Plenary, semi-plenary, tutorial and panel sessions given by prestigious invited speakers.
• Regular streams, defined as blocks of sessions within a thematic OR area. Sessions can be invited or contributed.
• Making an Impact stream being a series of participative activities aimed at helping practitioners to become more effective.
• OR Education stream focusing on best practices for teaching OR.

In addition, EURO-k conferences feature some special events, including the following:

• awards of EURO prizes: EURO Distinguished Service Award, EURO Gold Medal, accompanied by a lecture of the Gold Medal laureate, EURO Excellence in Practice Award, EURO Doctoral Dissertation Award, EURO Prize for OR for the Common Good, and EURO Award for the Best EJOR Papers,
• Exhibitors Area,
• possibility of visits to companies where OR is used in daily activities.

National OR societies that are full members of EURO are regularly invited to submit proposals to host future EURO-k Conferences.
