Dear Karena Unfortuately, we cannot allow new papers to enter the program at this time. Only papers that obtained high scores during peer review were accepted for presentation, with an accept rate of around 35%. Furthermore, the deadline for registration of accepted papers was May 1, and the program has been finalized by now. You are welcome to register for the conference without a paper.

Få mere at vide om, hvorfor dette er vigtigt<https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentification> Dear Professor Lorenzen, Thank you for this. I must apologize as I made a mistake when submitting my conference paper; I only submitted the abstract instead of the full paper. Is there any chance I could still get an opportunity to present the paper, perhaps if there are any cancellations? For your reference, I have published in journals such as Research Policy and the Journal of Product Innovation Management. I have attached the full paper for your consideration. https://www.durham.ac.uk/business/our-people/ji-yan/ I am eager to engage with the conference attendees and my co-authors, and keen to receive feedback on my work. Apologies in advance for any inconvenience this may cause. Many thanks.

Learn why this is important<https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentification> [EXTERNAL EMAIL] DRUID24 SKEMA Business School and University Côte d'Azur June 13-June 15, 2024 Email: druid@druid.dk Website: druid.dk Dear Karena Yan , Paper ID: 71177 , Paper title: " How do Regulatory Constraints Impact on Firm Innovation? " We have now reached a decision regarding the submissions to be presented during the upcoming DRUID24. 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. We received more than 700 submissions for DRUID24, and consequently, we have had to be strict in applying our decision-making criteria. We regret to inform you that your paper has not been accepted for presentation at the conference. As stated in the call and during the submission process no review or comments will be offered to the author or authors to supplement the decision. However, you are encouraged to register for DRUID24 -- a rewarding experience both intellectually and socially. Please see the plenary conference program, available on the conference website. We acknowledge that many scholars interested in attending the conference can only get their participation funded if they present a paper during the conference. In order to faciliate this process we are considering launching two Special Paper Sessions on June 14 pending on sufficient interest. Novel ideas not yet recognized by established reviewers will get attention of the audience in such a session. The session will be organized in tracks and rooms allocated. Presenters will receive a certification of participation in the conference with the name of the author and paper title, much the same as all other presenters, but papers for a Special Paper Session will not be available on the conference website or in the formal conference program and no chair or discussant will be appointed by the conference organizers. If you wish us to consider organizing such an option, please a) register for the conference and pay the conference fee and b) return this email to us, stating "Special Paper Session" in the subject field of the mail. If you have sent this email to us we will notify you before May 20 if there has been shown sufficient interest to make us organize these Special Paper Sessions. A few practicalities regarding registration and participation to the conference: Registration can be accessed by clicking “Registration” on the right hand of the screen after logon. DRUID offers DRUID DISCOVERIES excursions, including a boat cruise and a guided trip to old Nice on June 14. Read more under "Practical" on the conference webpage's top blue banner, and sign up through the registration page. Space is limited so please sign up ASAP. On the same page, registration and payment is available for the DRUID DECADENCE afterparty in the evening June 14. Read more under "Practical". Be sure to make your hotel bookings very soon, as hotels in Nice in the summer season are in short supply and late reservations tend to get very expensive. Please ensure to meet current visa requirements if applicable. Please see the conference website under "Practical" for details about transport to the conference venue, visa requirements, and more. Cancellation policy: Cancellations received before May 20: Payments refunded in full. Cancellations received after May 20 and before June 1: Payments refunded with a 50 % reduction. Cancellations after June 1: No refund. Best wishes Mark Lorenzen Director, DRUID ---------------- For future reference please use the following email ID: 129478
