The INFORMS Analytics+ Conference showcased how companies are turning advanced analytics and AI into measurable operational results
Museums take this educational role seriously, and many institutions understand the need to sustain and broaden their appeal. “They used to be these big ivory towers of knowledge and history and thought and art,” said Hilary Knight, director of Change& in London and former director of digital at Tate. “Museums themselves are changing their role to be centers for discussion and encounter and to be much more participatory.”
'Ghost ships' are vessels that disappear from public tracking systems, their location manipulated or their digital record misleading. An estimated 65% of outbound tankers crossing the Strait of Hormuz operate in dark mode, reducing visibility and increasing supply chain uncertainty. Misinformation in vessel tracking can cause manufacturing delays, compliance risks and financial losses. Layered verification processes, combining AIS data with other sources and escalation triggers for handling uncertain shipments, can help mitigate risk.

In May 2023, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared an end to the COVID-19 pandemic (1). Despite that announcement, fallout from the pandemic continues to reverberate through global supply chains, exposing their opacity and fragility and catalyzing their transformation. Geopolitical issues, such as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and rising tensions between the United States and China, have shaped supply-chain transformation, resulting in what I call a “supply-chain iron curtain” that is poised to complicate international trade (2).
