The 2nd INFMA Forum is hosted by the NAU School of Economics and Management, Nanjing Audit University, with the co-organizing support from Tianjin University, Chongqing University of Posts and Telecommunications, and Beijing Foreign Studies University. The theme of the year is “Decision engineering in increasing international cooperation”. Our purpose is to promote decision rationality, and an effective culture of cooperation.

One reliable though not unique approach for making a better world, where the complexities of social, economic, natural and technical systems interact, is to involve insightful analysis and link them with good wills. The forum aims to provide a platform of network growth for those who are active in developing or practicing analytical methods and tools in economic, social, natural and technical systems for the purpose of better management. Therefore we seek papers or presentations related to the use of models for better management, both in corporate and public domains.
