ISB – POMS Workshop 2024
ISB Campus Hyderabad, 11th – 12th July, 2024
Dear All,
We are reviving the ISB – POMS workshop after the COVID break. The upcoming workshop is aimed at showcasing cutting-edge academic research in the area of "Operations Management Advances in Emerging Markets."
Topics: The workshop will focus on diverse yet related topics such as agriculture and food supply chains, healthcare operations, pharmaceutical supply networks, retail operations, risk management, and sustainability that are motivated by problems in emerging economies, using datasets from these settings and/or has policy implications for these contexts. However, these attributes are not necessary for submission. All methodologies (analytical modeling, empirical modeling, statistics) are welcome, and the emphasis is on the rigorous execution of these methodologies and the practical relevance of the results.
Format: The workshop will comprise a single track of approximately ten high-quality presentations over 1.5 working days. Each presentation will be 30 minutes long, followed by 15 minutes of discussion. In addition to the presentations, the workshop program will include keynote talks and a dedicated slot for a poster session featuring the work of PhD students.
Submission guidelines: To be considered for the workshop, authors must submit an extended abstract of four pages via email to isb_poms@isb.edu by April 30, 2024. It should describe the contextual motivation of the research problem, a brief discussion of the methodology used, the main results, and policy / managerial implications. The abstract should also clearly state whether the submission is toward the presentation track or the poster session. Submissions will be peer-reviewed, and final acceptance decisions will be communicated by May 15, 2024.
Registration Fees and Expenses: The registration fee for non-student attendees is INR 8000 (USD 100) and INR 2000 (USD 25) for student attendees. Registration fees will be waived for presenters. On-site registration during the workshop is strictly subject to the availability of seating capacity. Limited financial support will be provided to the presenters.
