Dear EWGLA members, We would like to update you with some news regarding this year’s meeting, the coordination board, grants and supports as well as the EURO2024 Locational Analysis stream. 1. XXIX EWGLA meeting was held at Sheffield University Management School on 19 - 21 June. The organization was chaired by Antonino Sgalambro while Francisco Saldanha da Gama co-chaired the Scientific Committee. The meeting hosted two plenary talks by David Simchi-Levi and Irina Gribkovskaia, 38 scientific talks and 60 participants from 15 countries. The meeting also celebrated the 40th anniversary of EWGLA, established during the first EURO Summer Institute (20 July - 10 August 1984) dedicated to Location Theory. We would like to thank the Organizing Committee, the Scientific Committee and all the participants for being part of this special meeting! You may browse the photo gallery at https://www.ewgla2024.org/EWGLA2024/ to feel or remember the warm atmosphere of the meeting. 2. The election of a new EWGLA Coordination Board member also took place during the EWGLA meeting: Serena Fugaro has replaced Carmela Piccolo in the board. We would like to thank Carmela for her valuable service and welcome Serena with best success wishes during her mandate. 3. Four early-career researchers have been granted support for attending EWGLA XXIX. We congratulate grantees Silvia Baldassarre (University of Bergamo), Bruna Figueiredo (University of Aveiro), Eduardo Pipicelli (University of Naples Federico II), and Sophia Wrede (RWTH Aachen) and look forward to sharing with you the video they will prepare in the upcoming days. 4. In the context of the 'Support for local or topic-specific meetings' call, the EWGLA board decided to support the “Novel methods and techniques in location science and their applications in problems with or without a facility location focus” workshop in CUNEF Universidad (Madrid, Spain) with up to 1000 Euros. This workshop is organized by Jesús María Pinar Pérez (CUNEF Universidad, Spain) and Diego Ruiz-Hernández (Sheffield University Management School). Further details are as follows: • Workshop date: 17th of July 2024. • Venue: CUNEF Universidad, Campus Leonardo Prieto Castro 2, Ciudad Universitaria, Madrid, Spain. • Registration fee: No fees will be charged. • Plenary Speakers: Justo Puerto Albandoz (Universidad de Sevilla, Spain) and Francisco Saldanha da Gama (Sheffield University Management School). 5. EWGLA board organized the Locational Analysis stream in the 33rd EURO Conference, held in Copenhagen between June 30 and July 3. This successful stream hosted 32 talks structured in 9 sessions addressing recent advances and important challenges in Locational Analysis (https://www.euro-online.org/conferences/program/#stream/29) We would like to thank all participants for their contributions! Kind regards, Diego, Hatice, Serena

FARWELL AS EWGLA BOARD MEMBER
by carmela.piccolo 21 Jun '24

21 Jun '24

Dear locators, These are my last hours as a board member, and I'd like to use them to thank you for this great experience. I feel very engaged with this community. I attended my first EWGLA meeting in 2011 in Nantes as a first-year PhD student (my first presentation at a conference), and many memories have been collected in the following years. I have attended many editions, known many friends, started new collaborations and initiated new students to location analysis, who are now very enthusiastic to be part of this group. :) I regret to have missed some meetings in the last years, but my period in the board has overlapped (apart from the covid pandemic) with a particular period of my life in which it was not so easy to travel around. I hope to recover. In particular, I would like to justify my absence from this meeting, but very important personal motivations have forced me to cancel my participation at the last moment. I would have never made this choice with levity due to my role on the board. Lastly, I take this occasion to wish the new board member all the best and express my availability to continue supporting the board and contributing to its activities as needed. I hope to see you very soon, Carmen

Dear locators, This is a gentle reminder of the Workshop "Novel methods and techniques in location science and their applications in problems with or without a facility location focus" that Diego Ruiz-Hernández and I are organising about applications of facility location modes to problems which are not necessarily locational in nature. Please remember that the deadline to confirm your attendance is on Tuesday 2nd of July. It is enough with sending us the title of your presentation and a mini-abstract briefly describing your contribution. Please remember that we have EWGLA funding for partially supporting the participation of PhD students in case one of your students is also interested in participating. Also, remember that there is no registration fee for this event. The workshop will be celebrated on the 17rth of July at CUNEF Campus in Madrid. Profs. Justo Puerto and Francisco Saldanha-da-Gamma will participate as guest speakers. Submissions Please submit your abstracts to jesusmaria.pinar(a)cunef.edu<mailto:jesusmaria.pinar@cunef.edu> using as subject: ABSTRACT LOCATION WORKSHOP 2024. Workshop date: 17th of July 2024.

EWGLA BOARD ELECTION
by Hatice ÇALIK 04 Jun '24

04 Jun '24

Dear EWGLA members, As most of you might recall, the duration of service for the EWGLA Coordination Board is 4 years, changing one member at a time during a EWGLA meeting such that the 3 members are from different countries. Thus, we are looking for a volunteer to replace Carmela Piccolo. According to the rules, eligible candidates are members of a EURO Society who do not work in Belgium or Spain. If you are interested, please send the board (ewgla-board(a)mail.euro-online.org) a one-page document where you state and promote your candidacy until Monday, 16 June 2024. During the EWGLA session of the next meeting in Sheffield, the EWGLA members will elect the new board member. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us. Best wishes, Hatice, Diego and Carmen
