This group works together with the local organizing committee to identify and invite plenary speakers, to review the submitted abstracts, and to publicize the conference.
The steering committee is also tasked with the responsibility of identifying sites for future conferences. The conference has taken place three times in Europe (Berlin, Leisecter, and Cluj-Napoca), and twice in North America (Sherbrooke and Salt Lake City (Snowbird)). The steering committee aims for the sixth conference to be held outside of North America in 2020. Instructions for making a bid to host ALAN 2020 will be available soon.
