Conference Guidelines
- There are two plenary sessions, the first one scheduled Thursday morning from 11:00 – 13:00 and the second scheduled Saturday morning from 10:00 -12:00. Each plenary session includes four keynote speakers. As a suggestion, plenary presentations should not last more than 30 minutes.
- Two of the eight conference tracks are delivered into the Romanian language due to initial requirements. However, all conference tracks should observe the same rules in terms of time presentation and debate. Each track is divided into sessions, two in the morning and two in the afternoon. A session lasts up to two hours comprising no more than five presentations. Session presentation should not last more than 20 minutes. The organizers kindly ask the track chairs to keep the schedule under control in order to have time for questions and debate.
- The presenters who consider that their attendants would be better informed on the subject
having hand-outs or a copy of their paper can ask the support of conference secretaries.
- Questions should be addressed after each presentation, but answers, comments and debate are recommended for the end of the session.
- Only the presented papers will be published in the Conference Proceedings. The Steering Committee will select several papers to be published in the next issue of the Review of Economic and Business Studies.
In order to be published, a paper should be submitted both in printed form and e-form to the Conference Secretary.
- Track chairs and discussants are kindly asked to get at least 20 minutes for comments and debate at the end of each session. Comments should be made by discussants. Also, the organizers would be grateful to the track chairs and discussants if they would prepare a short note about the quality of presented papers. It would be of much support to organizers to know what they have to improve in the future.
- Conference Proceedings will be sent to all the participants soon after publishing.
