Dear Conference Organizers,
I hope this email finds you well. I have two accepted papers to the
Conference I and successfully registered.
However, I see that one author can present max one paper. Accordingly, I
was wondering whether you have the intention to allow also for remote
attendance, since my coauthor Alessio Cozzolino (cc) would be happy to
present our accepted paper, but cannot travel in those dates.
Thanks a lot for your precious support.
Best Wishes,
Luca Pistilli

Dear Luca Pistilli ,

We have now reached a decision regarding the submissions to be presented
during the upcoming DRUID21. The decision has been made according to the
criteria stated in the call for papers, i.e. novelty, academic quality and
the proposed paper's relation to industrial dynamics in general and to the
themes of the conference in particular. All papers have been reviewed
anonymously by at least three reviewers working independently of each
other. As stated during the submission process we regret that no review or
comments will be offered to the author or authors to supplement the
decision.
We are pleased to inform you that your paper: " Never Give Up! How to
effectively respond to an M&A failure with a post-M&A recovery strategy "

GUIDELINES FOR PAPER PRESENTERS
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Each participant will only be allowed to present one paper during the
conference. Coauthored papers may be presented by any of the participating
coauthors.
The basic format of all PAPER SESSIONS (plenary as well as parallel) is as
follows.
Each session normally include three papers and lasts about one and a half
hours.
The standard time schedule looks like this:
First paper presentation by the author = 15 minutes
Second paper presentation by the author = 15 minutes
Third paper presentation by the author = 15 minutes
First discussant of all three papers = 12 minutes
Second discussant of all three papers = 12 minutes
General discussion and replies from the authors = approximately 20 minutes.
Computer projectors will be available for PowerPoint presentations. Please
bring your presentation on a USB memory device.
With a conference of this size, we ask you to remember some basic rules
when making your presentation. In order that everyone has sufficient time
to speak it is important that you exercise discipline, particularly time
management. These notes are intended to inform you of how each session will
be organized.
- Please arrive at the appropriate room five minutes before the session is
due to start. All rooms are equipped with black out facilities and a
projector. Please that you must arrive with your presentation on a USB
memory device and load it yourself onto the machine provided in the room
BEFORE the start of the session. It might be a good idea to do so well in
advance. Solicit advice at the info desk or through student assistants if
experiencing trouble.
- Introduce yourself to the other presenters and the chair. Give the chair
your biographical details for use in introducing you. Ideally, to assist
the chair these should be in writing.
- Present your paper in judicious language. Disclose any financial or other
interest you might have in the subject matter of the papers. Acknowledge
contributions of co-authors. Structure your presentation so that you have
time for your findings and their possible implications (when relevant).
Avoid or explain uncommon abbreviations or terms.
- The chair will tell you at the beginning of the session how long your
presentation can last. This will inevitably vary between sessions depending
on the number of papers to be presented. In a one and a half hour session
with three papers, you should aim to speak for no more than 15 minutes
leaving time for your discussants and for the floor.
- We have asked session chairs to be very strict in terms of time
management so that each presenter has an equal amount of time.
- During your presentation the session chair will pass you three cards
indicating that your time allocation is coming to an end. - Five minutes
presentation time remaining. - Two minutes presentation time remaining. -
If you are shown the RED card this means your time is over. Finish your
sentence and STOP your presentation. Chairs have been asked to be polite
but firm in allocating time.
