Dear Colleagues,
The INFORMS Minority Issues Forum (MIF) invites you to organize a session for the 2026 INFORMS Annual Meeting, scheduled for November 1 to 4, 2026, in San Francisco, California.
We welcome proposals for panel sessions as well as joint sessions co-sponsored with other INFORMS subdivisions. Organizing a session provides a valuable opportunity to highlight significant research, facilitate academic discourse, and actively contribute to the scientific community.
If you are interested in organizing a session, please submit your details through the INFORMS MIF Session Organization Survey. The form requires approximately five minutes to complete.
For any inquiries regarding session organization, please please feel free to reach out. Thank you for your dedication to the Minority Issues Forum. We look forward to a rigorous and engaging program in San Francisco.
On behalf of the 2026 MIF Cluster Co-chairs,
