The men and women who author Edelman finalist papers each year in INFORMS Journal on Applied Analytics are deemed Franz Edelman Laureates. Each is formally presented with The Franz Edelman Medal to recognize this distinction. Laureates are recognized for their significant contribution to work that is selected as representative of the best applications of analytical decision making in the world.
Franz Edelman Laureates are expected to perform two services: to serve as role models for others who wish to follow in their footsteps and to exemplify to those in attendance at the Franz Edelman Gala that challenges can be faced successfully and opportunities for improvement can be found in every organization through the innovative application of analytics.
