Dear Nimra

The conference capacity has been reached, but we allow you and a few others on the waiting list to register and stay on the program.

Will you be able to register today between 4pm and 5pm CET? If so, send me a message when you are ready, and I can open the system for registration very briefly.

All best

Mark

Emne: Re: [Druid] Retention of paper ID: 70271

 

 Dear Mark 

I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused. One of my coauthor, Prof. Bart Clarysee from ETH Zürich has already registered for the conference to present our paper. There was a misunderstanding that led me to request the withdrawal of our paper, as I was unable to attend the conference in person.

Upon checking the DURID conference platform, I noticed that our paper has already been removed. I am unsure if it is still possible to retain the paper. Could you please let me know if it is feasible to keep it? If it is not possible, kindly inform me, and I will notify my coauthors accordingly. However, if there is a chance to retain the paper, I would be extremely grateful if you could facilitate its retention.

Thank you for your understanding and assistance in this matter.

Regards,

Nimra

Dear Program Organizer

I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to request the withdrawal of my paper ID: 70271, " Lean Startup-Based Business Coaching and The Acceleration of Deep Tech Ventures " from the DRUID conference scheduled to take place on June 10-12. After careful consideration and evaluation of various factors, I have decided to withdraw the paper from the conference presentation.

I sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and understand the impact it may have on the conference program. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, I am unable to proceed with the presentation as initially planned.

Many thanks,

Dear Syeda Nimra Batool ,
Paper ID: 70271 , Paper title: " Lean Startup-Based Business Coaching and The Acceleration of Deep Tech Ventures "


We have now reached a decision regarding the submissions to be presented during the upcoming DRUID23. 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: " Lean Startup-Based Business Coaching and The Acceleration of Deep Tech Ventures " has been accepted for oral presentation in a parallel paper session.

Your paper is scheduled for presentation on June 12 and you have been assigned as session discussant  June 10. Please avoid making travel arrangements that might prevent you from participating in all sessions during any of these two days. Consult the detailed on-line program on the conference website when available by June 1 as some changes are bound to occur. Information regarding session formats and roles as presenter and as discussant will be provided under "Program" in the blue banner at the top of the conference website.

Make sure to inform your coauthors (if any) of the content of this email in general and the Paper ID: 70271 in particular. They might well need this number if they register for the conference. DRUID has a rule-of-one: Each participant can only present one paper. If you have more than one paper accepted, a co-author must register and present the other(s). If you are the only author of several accepted papers, please inform us which paper you prefer to present, and we will remove the other(s) from the program.

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 parallel paper sessions 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.
