One of the hardest hit industries suffering from the corona virus is the event industry. Hotels, airlines, meeting facilities, restaurants – the list goes on and on – all massively impacted, and our industry’s conferences are getting cancelled, suspended, or changed.
In this Community Discussion, we’ll be talking specifics about which conferences are still scheduled, which have changed, and which have been cancelled.
We’ll also talk about newly launched events, as well as do some Q&A with the live participants about their perspective on the challenges our industry events are facing.

Did you attend conferences regularly (2 or more a year)? And if so, will not being able to attend an event have an adverse effect on your professional development?
Do you currently have a need to upskill or reskill because of the pandemic?
Is your opinion of conferences going to change moving forward? For example, are they a critical enough part of your professional development that you will immediately return to attending as soon as possible?
What will be required to make you feel comfortable returning to attending live events?
Are you registered for or looking to register for any upcoming live online events?
If you’re registered for an online event, what is it?
Do you have any sense of how your organization is going to make decisions about your professional development going forward?
