Excellent. The good news is that deadline is March 1 by midnight LOCAL TIME, ie you have a few more hours at your disposal.

Good afternoon Mark!

Thank you so very much for the email here. I also know it is almost 18:00 (6pm) your time, so I do very much appreciate the email here.

Of note, in addition to my research, I teach (and have taught) over 25+ MBA and undergraduate courses at McGill University and the University of Ottawa, so I do totally understand and respect the timelines (to be fair with all applicants).

I do indeed also appreciate your motivating recommendation. I will therefore seek to submit the paper at its finest and most robust form with the most relevant information possible. That would be fantastic if accepted with that opportyhnity to upload a modified version before June (for the conference).

Thank you so very much for the helpful response. I will aim to submit the paper by 6pm my time (midnight Denmark time) and I do hope to meet you in person in Lisbon in June!

Have a great week and I look forward to meeting you in person soon.

Kind regards,

Dennis

Dear Dennis

Thanks for the mail -- it sounds good that you are interested in DRUID! Unfortunately, for reasons I am sure you understand, we have made it a rule never to push the submission deadline. I suggest you submit the best possible manuscript for peer review -- if the paper gets accepted, you will be able to upload an updated version before the conference.

All best

Hi!

I am writing from Montreal, Canada with McGill University and I am currently working on my Ph.D. with regards to sustainability (ESG) and entrepreneurship, particularly with luxury-based start-ups.

Earlier this month, I learned of your amazing conference, DRUID and I am very, very interested to submit a paper for the Conference in Lisbon. I strongly believe my research (sustainability and luxury entrepeneurship start-ups), will have a huge impact on theoretical and practical business worlds.

I did see the due date for the submission is tomorrow (by midnight). Based on some logistics, I am inquiring to see if it is possible to submit the paper March 3^rd by the same time? I need the extra two days, particularly with regards to the data set / analysis.

Is that possible?

Thank you so much for your time, help and support and I hope to meet you and see you in Lisbon in June!
