What have participants said?

  • “One can tell that someone really thought about how to design the conference experience. From excellent comments from reviewers upon submission and re- view of papers, food vouchers for breakfast and lunch that provided excellent networking with other participants, good keynote speaker, interesting presenta- tions, and good poster presentations. The first day social provided bountiful food and drink with another great opportunity to network with others.”
  • “I truly like the conference! It was a great opportunity for networking and the presented papers were very interesting. I hope I can come back next year. Thanks to all of the organizers for their great work!”
  • “My discussant was very constructive and thorough, and the overall quality and caliber of the participants was outstanding. It makes it an amazing conference when you can attract such amazing people.”
  • “One can tell that someone really thought about how to design the conference experience. From excellent comments from reviewers upon submission and review of papers, food vouchers for breakfast and lunch that provided excellent networking with other participants, good keynote speaker, interesting presentations, and good poster presentations. The Polynesian Cultural Center was a great way to provide a good exposure to Hawaii for first time visitors. The first day social provided bountiful food and drink with another great opportunity to network with others.”
  • “High quality papers presented, paper discussants also exceeded my expectations! The panel discussion on cryptocurrencies was very relevant. I wish that there was more time for that one. Kudos on bringing in Mike McGuire. His talk on accounting disruption was also relevant. Overall, I generated excellent research ideas. Thank you to the faculty and the students that organized and executed this conference and I hope to be able to attend again next year.”
  • “I applaud the organizers of the conference for a job well done. I think everything was done well and professionally. Personally, I enjoyed many of the papers, the discussions, and the networking opportunities. The hospitality was Hawaiian!”
  • “Thank you very much for organizing a terrific conference. I learned a lot and established connections with other scholars in my field.”
  • “The conference is geographically positioned well to bring in researchers from locations that often do not do mainstream, archival or experimental research. The few sessions I attended with these researchers were very insightful as they brought in very different ideas than the typical archival and experimental researchers bring in.”
  • “The less expensive housing option at Lincoln Hall made it possible for me to attend. The food caterer was incredible. The quality of paper was very good. The location in Oahu was very nice because there is so much for people to do, whether they like nature, culture, food, or tourist sites like museums, monuments, etc…The students working at the conference were very intelligent and helpful. I imagine the experience interacting with professors from around the world was good for them as well.”
  • “Good selection of papers, well organized sessions, good housing options — I was pretty much happy with the whole thing”
  • “This conference was probably in my top 3 conferences of my 35 year career! Great work!”
