  • 1.  Vets at #2024Analytic in Orlando

    Fellow Veterans,

    I'm putting together a one-page flyer with all the many Veteran Forum hosted and veteran aligned events in Orlando.

    If you are presenting in Orlando, I would love to include you in a section of the flyer, encouraging attendance and highlighting the significant veteran presence within INFORMS.  Reply to this thread.  It's okay if you don't yet have your assigned day and time, I just want to capture Veteran giving presentations.  Attendees can look up your name in the app.

    I will send out the flyer once ready....looks like we'll have a yoga session, a panel, a breakfast, games, no-host social....and more.

    Best regards,

    Nick

    Hi Nick - I am a veteran and presenting at INFORMS on April, 16 2024 at 11:30am-12:20pm. I am speaking in the Predictive Analytics track and the title is "iMPOWER: Innovating Misinformation Analysis with AI and Semi-Supervised Machine Learning."

    Thanks Mark.  I'll put your name on the flyer.  And I hope you can make it to some of the Veteran focused events.

    Best,

    Additional opportunity at #Analytics2024 in Orlando.  There will networking tables at lunch on Monday.  Each community (including ours) can commit to one or more tables.  The ask is that we have at least one community member at the table at the beginning of lunch.  Each table can seat up to 8 people.  If you are attending and would like like to "host" a table to promote the Veterans Forum (or perhaps just chat with fellow veterans), let me know.  There is no cost to the forum, other than a little time spent networking at lunch.  Like the previous ask in this thread....just hit reply and let me know.  Thanks!

    Best,

    Hi,  I'm in the process of getting travel approved to be at the Analytics conference and am planning to be there. Looking forward to it, and hosting a table Monday.
