Re: [Druid] DRUID24: Your Parallel paper presentation

Dear Druid Organisers, there seem to be some mistake. Indeed, I have applied with two papers but I have confirmed to present only the first one " Carrot first, stick second...". I understand this is a tight deadline so I am willing to present also the other, that being said, if there is somebody else to be included in the program at the short notice - that is ok with me too!

email ID: 131509 Good afternoon! Thank you for your email and I am very happy to serve as discussant for session 66 Choice and decision making. Unfortunately, my travel plans have changed since registration and I will need to leave the conference venue at around 1530 on the 15th of June. I am happy to prerecord a video with my comments and provide it to the session chair if that is acceptable. If this is not acceptable, if there is an alternate to replace me at the conference that may be best (and I would be happy to step in for an earlier session). I apologize for the inconvenience but would like to make sure the authors still get feedback and can certainly comment to providing written feedback on each paper even if I cannot deliver comments in person.

Re: [Druid] DRUID24: Your role as Chair in a parallel paper session - email ID: 131431

Dear organizer, I am sorry to send you this email (I suppose that the period is quite busy) but I was assigned a chair that overlaps with my poster presentation (4th parallel session). In order to chair the session properly, I would need to be in the room at least 10 minutes before (all the more so since I never chaired a session before and I am not familiar with the theme), meaning leaving the poster presentation 15 minutes before. I expect interesting feedbacks and discussions during this poster presentation so I would be glad if I could attend the entire session without fearing to need to cut a discussion short. I hope that you will understand my point and be able to find an alternative solution. Sorry for this late request and thank you very much for organizing this nice event. Kind regards, Vincent Vindevoghel De : DRUID24 <druid(a)druid.dk> Envoyé : lundi 3 juin 2024 00:34 À : VINDEVOGHEL Vincent <Vincent.VINDEVOGHEL(a)grenoble-em.com> Objet : DRUID24: Your role as Chair in a parallel paper session DRUID24 SKEMA Business School and University Côte d'Azur June 13-June 15, 2024 Email: druid(a)druid.dk<mailto:druid@druid.dk> Website: druid.dk YOUR ROLE AS SESSION CHAIR Dear Vincent Vindevoghel, Chair for the session on " Venture capital: Investment practices and strategies " at 2024-Jun-14 15:00 - 16:30 The DRUID24 parallel sessions program is now ready and available on the conference website www.druid.dk<http://www.druid.dk> from the "Program" drop-down menu.

Space is limited for the social events, so please book well in advance from your DRUID conference registration profile. We look forward to seeing you in Nice! Best wishes Mark Lorenzen Director, DRUID ------------------------ SESSION CHAIR GUIDELINES This note is intended to provide you with guidance on managing the session for which you are responsible but inevitably you will have to show some degree of flexibility. In essence, your role will be to introduce the presenter and allocated discussants; control the length of time that they speak for and manage any questions from the floor. In most sessions three papers will be presented. Notify the Conference Organizers immediately if you become suspicious of any possible fabrication of data or plagiarism relating to the papers in your session. We believe that it is important to establish some ground rules that everybody understands and works towards during the conference: * Please arrive in the room where the session is to take place at least five minutes before the appointed time. If using PowerPoint the presenters and discussants have been asked to upload their presentation or comments on the PC before the start of the session to save time. Solicit advice at the info desk or through student assistants if experiencing trouble. * Introduce yourself to the presenters before the session. Ask them for biographical details to use in introducing them. Make sure that their presentation has been uploaded. Inform them of the maximum time they will have to present their paper. For example, in a one and a half hour session with three papers, each presenter should have 15 minutes and the two discussants should be allocated 12 minutes each. It is important that participants are given the chance to ask additional questions from the floor. * If for some reason not both assigned discussants turn up you might offer prepared comments yourself or allocate the time to the other discussant or to the floor. * For each paper introduce the author and title of the paper. * A series of cards to help the presenter or discussants to manage the time will be available to you in each workshop room. - The first card you pass indicates that the presenter or discussant has a maximum of five minutes left. - The second card indicates that there are two minutes left. - The third and final RED card indicates that their time is over and the presenter or discussant must STOP. In issuing the red card you must be polite but firm. It is to be fair to other presenters or discussants in the session and to the audience who will wish to contribute in the discussion time. * In managing the questions and answers part of each session please ask those asking questions to identify themselves and to keep their comments as short as possible to allow time for the presenters to respond in full. You may decide how to organize this element of the session, i.e. after each paper or after all the papers have been presented. * Please ensure that the session finishes on time. With the number of papers to be presented this is going to be a busy event. Sessions that over run have implications for other sessions or events later in the day. ---------------- For future reference please use the following email ID: 131431
