Fourth annual ETSG conference: Registration
for the fourth ETSG conference, to be held in Kiel on 13-15 September
2002, is close. The call for papers has been very successful and we
received many submissions. Emails regarding papers will be sent out at
the end of June. REMEMBER to book your lodgings. You will not be allowed
to sleep in the meeting rooms (except during sessions). Further details
will be soon available on the ETSG web page: www.etsg.org.
Funding: Please remember that we are running ETSG on a
financial shoestring. Funding provided by the European Science
Foundation has now ended. While we are looking for other possible
sources of funding, our budget is now very limited. Therefore, we cannot
guarantee to be able to accommodate those speakers needing funds.
Fifth ETSG conference: The ETSG 2003
will be held at the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid on 12-14 September
2003. The local organizers are Klaus Desmet, Juan Ruiz, and Praveen
Kujal.
WebBoard: ETSG has a web board on its web site. You are
invited to post trade related announcements (workshops, conferences,
etc) to the web board.
