Collaborate with Tilburg School of Economics and Management

Together with CZ, one of the largest Dutch health insurance companies, TiSEM is involved in a research project that examines the impact of data science on business models and artificial intelligence in the health insurance sector. The research project is worth 1,000K (over the period of 2017-2022).

Three operations research scholars have developed an integrated optimization model for the World Food Program. The model allows to determine the optimal mix of ingredients for a daily meal such that various nutritional requirements are satisfied and the logistics costs (purchasing, transportation, etc.) are minimized. The model has been applied by WFP in several countries already. It is estimated that in Syria along the use of the model allows an additional 1 million people to be fed.

Together with APG, financial services provider, TiSEM is involved in an industrial doctorate project financed by Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO). The industrial doctoral project focuses on how individuals can be guided in their choice of a pension as to ensure optimal outcomes for them but also for society at large.
