The Headquarters Supreme Allied Commander Transformation and the Science and Technology Organization co-hosted the 14th NATO Operations Research and Analysis (OR&A) Conference on 05 and 06 October 2020. The conference was held virtually due the restrictions caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. This year’s conference theme was “Emerging and Disruptive Technology” (EDT). The Programme Committee encouraged the submission of papers relevant to EDT, particularly those that address methods for assessing the impact of EDT on military operations and security issues, or how these technologies can improve decision making and analysis methods. The annual OR&A conference serves as an integral component to the continuous development of the NATO OR&A Community of Interest. It builds upon previous conferences and workshops, and assembles esteemed members of the profession from across numerous organizations that include NATO commands and agencies, national defense analysis and research organizations, centers of excellence, academia, and industry. It is our goal to provide an exciting program with plenty of opportunities for discussion and debate, as well as to provide valuable and relevant training opportunities.
