Annual Conference postponed
We were looking forward to welcoming you at our annual conference this year, however, circumstances have changed dramatically since the President announced a state of disaster in response to the COVID-19 threat. In this time of uncertainty, it is impossible to predict the scope and effect of this global crisis. We have, accordingly, decided to put the interests of all of our stakeholders, supporters and strategic partners first by postponing the Annual Conference to 22nd and 23rd July 2021.
