Dear DRUID conference organizers,
I am registered the 2023 DRUID conference in Portgual. Unfortunately due to a family medical emergency, I am not going to be able to attend and would like to unregister for the conference.
I have a teenage daughter that has neurological issues. She has been okay the last few months and I thought I would be okay to travel this June, but last week she had two severe neurological events and because of this I am unable to travel
until we understand what has happened and she is stable again.
I apologize about this as I was really looking forward to the conference. I had two papers accepted to the conference, so could you please take them off the program:
Here is the info on the papers:
Paper 70263. Title: Global Health Interlopers: Why Do Small Companies Pursue SBIR Funding for Non-Market Technology Development
Paper 70341. Title: Creating Fluency in Highly Collaborative Inter-organizational Relations Across Institutional Logics: University-Industry Partnerships for Drug Development
The second paper on university-industry partnerships is co-authored with Marcela Miozzo, but she also cannot attend, so please take both papers off the program.
If possible, could I be refunded as much of the registration fee and dinner fee as allowed? If you need additional information for this I’d be happy to provide the credit card information that I used to register.
Again, I apologize for this inconvenience and I’m hopping to be able to attend in the future. If you could send a quick acknowledgement email I’d really appreciate it.
Best regards,
Steve
