Athens, Greece, July 11-14, 2021

FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR PAPERS
=======================================
We have the great pleasure of inviting you to take part in the 31 st EURO Conference to be held in Athens.
The Program Committee, chaired by Rudolf Vetchera, and the Organizing Committee, co-chaired by Nikolaos Matsatsinis and John Psarras, are preparing a high-quality scientific program and an exciting social program for the Conference.
After a year of lockdowns and limited travel, we are optimistic that the EURO 2021 Conference will again provide an excellent opportunity for the OR community to meet in person in a city that in a unique way stands for the identity of Europe. EURO 2021 acknowledges that virtual conferences can't entirely replicate the conference experience, which normally involves face to face meetings and networking opportunities. However, EURO 2021 is fully prepared to adjust its strategy in case of any similar situation and to convert the physical congress to a hybrid or virtual one, with main objective that the new format will continue to meet the needs of the Euro 2021 community and to ensure a viable future for the association's activities in scientific education and professional support. Registered participants will still be eligible to participate, authors whose abstracts were accepted will be published in the digital abstract book, with e-posters available for virtual consultation and industry to have a wide selection of sponsorship opportunities.
PLENARY, KEYNOTE & TUTORIAL SPEAKERS:
=====================================
We have selected several outstanding Plenaries & Tutorial Speakers that will present the state-of-the-art in Operations Research and outline pathways of its future developments. More information on speakers and their presentations will be announced soon. Please follow up further information at the EURO 2021 Conference webpage: [ https://euro2021athens.com/ | https://euro2021athens.com/ ] .
CALL FOR PAPERS AND SESSIONS:
=============================
Researchers, academics, practitioners, and students interested in any branch of Operational Research, mathematical modelling or economic analysis are invited to submit abstracts or organize sessions.
Invited and contributed papers will be organized in parallel sessions. In general, sessions will be a part of the Conference streams, and streams are grouped in different areas. The list of areas and streams will be available shortly.
Abstract submission system is available online, via the Conference web page ( [ https://euro2021athens.com/ | https://euro2021athens.com/ ] ).
