This is fortified by the experience we are gaining through the TUPLES project, while simultaneously preparing for the <a href=\"https:\/\/euro2024cph.dk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EURO Conference<\/a>, scheduled this year in Copenhagen. The conference promises a rich program in the stream dedicated to the practical application of OR, titled &#8216;Make an Impact.&#8217;\n\nWe will also be participating in and sponsoring the 2024 edition of the International Conference on Optimization and Decision Science (<a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3SWOeZ0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ODS<\/a>), organized by AIRO in September in Sardinia. This year&#8217;s theme, &#8216;Operational Research: Bridging the Gap between Research and Practice,&#8217; holds particular significance for us.\n\n<strong>Sixteen years since our inception as a spin-off of UNIBO, we continue to be fascinated and committed to supporting, participating in, and promoting opportunities for growth and collaboration with colleagues, partners, and even competitors. Our goal is to foster the Decision Science industry, contributing to the development of increasingly ambitious methods, applications, and solutions to enhance the operational, environmental, and social performance impacts of our client companies.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The eighth AIROYoung Workshop is currently underway at the University of Calabria,
