General Information about the Symposium
    
    
     
    
    The Said Business School offers superb research facilities.  
    Symposium participants are provided with shared luxury accommodation and 
    office space, and there are numerous seminar rooms which allow interaction 
    with others on an informal basis.  
    
     
    
    There are bar and restaurant facilities in the School and 
    many restaurants in close proximity.  The School is immediately 
    adjacent to the station, allowing easy access to other parts of the UK, 
    including London, which is one hour by train.
    
     
    
    A number of newly built apartments have been reserved within 
    a few minutes walking distance from the School. These apartments have two 
    twin-bedded rooms, sitting room, bathrooms, fax machines etc. 
    
     
    
    We anticipate that in most cases, there will be two 
    participants to each apartment and this will allow for accommodation of 
    partners. In those cases where participants wish to come with a family, it 
    may be possible to allocate a complete apartment, but participants will then 
    be asked to pay for the second room.
    
     
    
    On week days, lunch will be provided in the business school and we will go 
    to a restaurant or Oxford College on most week day evenings during the 
    Symposium. 
     
    
    We may organize some social events during the Symposium but no firm plans 
    have yet been made for these. In any event, June is one of the most pleasant 
    months of the year in Oxford and there is an immense amount to do both in 
    and around Oxford.
     
    We will pay for the lowest cost, economy 
    return flight to London for participants but not for anyone accompanying 
    them. Please consult the symposium co-ordinator before booking your flight.
     
    Participants will be responsible for other 
    costs incurred during the Symposium.
     
    
    Places are being allocated by invitation only, on a strictly first come 
    first served basis, but preference will be given to those who can stay for 
    the entire symposium.
