Dear MSOM Society Members:
INFORMS incorrectly listed some society meetings as in-person; please note that the in-person MSOM Society meeting time on Monday evening will be ONLY for MSOM Reception. The MSOM Business Meeting will be hosted virtually on Monday at 6:30 AM PDT. Please refer to the following reminder. If you receive multiple identical reminders from MSOM officers these days, sorry for the redundancy but congratulations for being an excellent reader; we are just trying to reach as many society members as possible during this special year. Enjoy the conference!
============================================
This is a reminder regarding three MSOM events that will be occurring at the upcoming INFORMS Annual meeting:
- The MSOM Business Meeting will be held on Monday, October 25th, 6:30 am – 7:45 am (Pacific). To increase audience engagement and facilitate conversations, the Business Meeting will be hosted using Zoom instead of a Webinar.
- The MSOM Reception will be held on Monday, October 25th, 6:15 pm (Pacific) in Convention Center 304D.
- As a reminder, for everyone's safety, only individually packaged snacks and drinks will be served. We will take pictures of all the finalists and awardees who can be at the reception.
- The MSOM DEI Committee (Anupam Agrawal, So Yeon Chun, Jorge Mejia, Chris Parker, Siddharth Singh, and Terry Taylor) is hosting a panel discussion on parental leave policies on Tuesday, October 26th, 7:45 am – 9:00 am (Pacific). This is a continuation of the DEI session hosted at the MSOM Conference this past June. The panelists include:
- Thunyarat (Bam) Amornpetchkul, NIDA Business School, Thailand
- Javiera Barrera, University Adolfo Ibáñez, Chile
- Maria Besiou, Kühne Logistics University, Germany
- Fikri Karaesman, Koc University, Turkey
- Govind Kumawat, IIM Udaipur, India
