Sustainable Innovations: Sustainable Innovation as a Tool for Regional
Development
Co-organized by The

Institute, and The
Presentations:
Rather than formal
paper presentations, the dominant mode of the workshop will be dialogue. Oral
presentations should be kept brief, with a few slides, if any at all, sticking
to your main points, results, challenges, and interesting questions that will
contribute to a discussion of the central issues and plans for next steps. Aim
to get the session participants focusing on ideas rather than a lot of text on
a screen. Make a brief presentation to provoke discussion and generate
interesting research and action agendas emerging from your session. Each
session will be lead by the session chair. He or she will be in contact with
all presenters before the conference. Please follow the instructions by the
chair.
Be
sure to arrive at your session room early and identify yourself to the session
chair. Each presenter will have about 10 minutes. Most sessions will run for 90
minutes. The amount of time you will have for your presentation will depend on
how many other presenters are in the session and what the session chair
determines would be fair and productive.
PowerPoint
will be supported. If possible, email your PPT files to greening@cstm.utwente.nl by June 13
so that they can be checked and loaded on our computers to facilitate
transitions between speakers; otherwise bring flash drives or CDs.
