Dear all, Thanks for your message, Sophie and Alix. Unfortunately I’ll be teaching at that exact time on Tuesday, 23 September. If Wednesday, 24 September isn’t possible for Saša, would we be able to meet earlier or later on 23 September? I could meet at 11am Amsterdam time or just after 4pm Amsterdam time on the Tuesday, if that works for everyone else. The January dates should be fine. I look forward to meeting/catching-up with everyone.

It's time for us to start planning our first Board meetings. Carna, Tom, and I would like to suggest: * Wednesday, 24 September, 14-16h Amsterdam time: short digital meeting in order to introduce ourselves to each other and discuss some current issues * 15-17 January 2026: This meeting will take place in Amsterdam or Mainz. You would arrive on Thursday evening (15 January, via Airport Schiphol/Amsterdam or Frankfurt), we have a 1 1/2 day Board meeting and you would leave again on Saturday afternoon/evening (or stay a bit in the beautiful cities of Amsterdam or Mainz). Could you please let me know if these dates work for you? Alternatively, we could also meet on 23 September instead of 24 September, at the same times. SIEF will arrange hotel reservations and cover the cost of your accommodation for two nights. However, we kindly ask that your home institutions cover your travel expenses. If this poses a problem, please don't hesitate to let me know. Would you please let me know if the dates work for you? All the best, Sophie __________________________ Prof. dr.
