We understand that the deadlines are tight and due to numerous requests for an extension, we are pleased to announce a short extension of the deadline. Please do note that, to be considered for the Next-Gen Scholar's Symposium, both your Submission and the Nomination should arrive by the deadline. Unfortunately, due to the tight timelines, we are unable to accept incomplete submission. We appreciate your understanding.
About the Conference
The Institute of Operations Research and Analytics (IORA), Department of Industrial Systems Engineering and Management (College of Design and Engineering), Department of Analytics and Operations (NUS Business School) of the National University of Singapore and the Operational Research Society of Singapore (ORSS) are proud to jointly host the Analytics for X 2025 conference in conjunction with the Next-Gen Scholars Symposium on 26-27 September 2025.
Analytics for X is an annual conference hosted by IORA that brings together researchers, educators, consultants, practitioners, and students to contribute to the Fourth Industrial Revolution conversation. As an annual event, the conference aims to promote the regular enhancement and dissemination of knowledge related to operations research and analytics, as well as efficient industrial practices. The focus areas of this year's conference are in Supply Chain, Sustainability and Simulation.
During this year's event, we are excited to continue hosting the Next-Gen Scholars Symposium. This symposium, exclusive to PhD students, aims to recognize outstanding scholars in Analytics, Operations Research (OR) and Operations Management (OM) who are nearing the completion of their PhD, typically within a year or two. It is dedicated to honoring and accelerating the paths of outstanding young scholars who find themselves at a pivotal stage in their academic journey. The symposium will feature the groundbreaking research of these emerging scholars, and will offer them a platform to engage with and learn from the Analytics & OR/OM community, as well as efficient industrial practices through networking opportunities.
We are also excited to launch the first ORSS Best Student Paper Competition, held in conjunction and as part of the ORSS 50th Anniversary celebration. This competition seeks to recognize outstanding student research conducted in Singapore that demonstrates originality, methodological rigor, and significant theoretical and/or practical impact. Submissions will be evaluated based on innovation, clarity of presentation, and potential contribution to the field of Operations Research and Analytics. Winners will be announced during the Analytics for X 2025 and further details can be found on the conference website.
