As we return to hosting physical events, we will do so safely and with the wellbeing of our teams, customers, speakers, partners, and sponsors at the centre of our decision-making. Arena International is closely monitoring the development of COVID-19 and any potential impact on the event. The safety of all attendees is our top priority, and we are taking the below precautionary measures which will be in place for all our events here forth. This means that when all our sponsors, exhibitors, speakers, and attendees come together to learn, network, and do business, they can do it effectively, safely and with self-assurance. We only ask that all attendees support us by supplying the necessary contact details and practicing good hygiene.
