Welcome to EurOMA 2013 in Dublin The 20th EurOMA conference returns to Dublin from June 09-12 2013 after a break of 15 years. Much has changed in our world since then. As the economies in Europe and beyond face into recovery from the current financial crisis, growth and development requires new and innovative approaches to customer service, productivity and improvement. Here, there are many choices available to manufacturing and service firms and to their managers. Correspondingly, there are new and innovative ways in which operations management researchers can inquire into and intervene in these choices. So, our conference theme is Operations Management: At the heart of Recovery. Our main motivation is to reinforce the message that operations management has a central role to play in the recovery of our linked economies and society.
This year we are using a scheduling app which allows you to create your own personalised programme for the conference on your mobile phone. We think you will find this particularly useful to help organise your time at the conference efficiently.
