Important Update: The 2020 Conference Has Been Postponed to September
We're supportive of decisions taken by public agencies and industry to restrict travel and face-to-face meetings to slow the spread of COVID-19. During this time nothing is more important than everyone’s safety and well-being.
Accordingly, we have moved this year’s event to ensure a safe, suitable, and appropriate time for all to participate. For everyone already registered, please know your registration has automatically been transitioned to the new event dates.
As we face rapidly changing realities created by the COVID-19 crisis, we will be closely monitoring and abiding by all CDC and government recommendations on the appropriateness of public gatherings like our Conference.
In the coming weeks we will provide event updates here on our website. For specific questions please view our updated FAQ page or contact Sarah Plombon at splombon@accessintel.com
We thank you for your support in our program and commitment to advancing collaborative solutions for our industry. We truly look forward to seeing you later this year, and hope that you and everyone close to you is well and remains safe.
Sincerely,
Tyson Iravani
