The GTRI Office of Policy Analysis and Research is a division of the Georgia Tech Research Institute that focuses on policy analysis, particularly in fields where GTRI has science and technology experience.[1][3] OPAR assists the Georgia General Assembly and publishes briefs on relevant issues, including how other states treat various issues.[4][5][6]

In particular, OPAR hosts an annual "Legislative Roundtable" that brings together interested state representatives, prominent members of Georgia industry, and Georgia Tech students and faculty.[7][8]
