Events at INFORMS
Whether you want to present your research at a large international conference, attend a small meetup, or simply access educational webinars, INFORMS has an event that will help you learn and grow.
Our major U.S.-based events each year include the spring Analytics Conference and the fall Annual Meeting. Some years we co-host international conferences with O.R. societies abroad.
INFORMS has dozens of subgroups, called communities, many of which host their own conferences. These are great places to learn from subject matter experts. Community conferences are held in locations all over the world.
INFORMS Insights: Exploring Industry Career Paths and Experiences is a webinar series developed as a resource for early career professionals to learn directly from the best in the business. Webinars are always free for INFORMS members.
INFORMS has an informal book club and all members are invited to join. Participants vote on a list of potential books and gather monthly for a lively virtual discussion on the current selection.
Local INFORMS chapters serve many major cities and geographical areas in the U.S. and beyond, hosting small conferences, speakers, and social meetups. If there’s no chapter near you, we can help you start one.
