A new research centre focused on Technology, Operations and Supply Chain Analysis (TOSCA) will officially launch at the University of Leeds on 24 April 2026.
Co-led by Mahdi Bashiri and Nicky Shaw, the centre will explore a range of themes at the intersection of technology, operations and supply chains, with Operational Research forming a key area of focus. TOSCA aims to build strong links with the wider OR community and support collaborative, real-world research.
The launch event will bring together professionals from industry, academia and policy, alongside consultants, PhD students and alumni of Leeds University Business School. Attendees will hear from keynote speakers, learn more about the centre’s research agenda, and take part in a panel discussion designed to spark conversation and new partnerships.
