NAB Show Canceled, WWRS Postponed
A message from NAB President & CEO Gordon Smith posted at NABShow.com, reads, in part, “In the interest of addressing the health and safety concerns of our stakeholders and in consultation with partners throughout the media and entertainment industry, we have decided not to move forward with NAB Show in April. We are currently considering a number of potential alternatives to create the best possible experience for our community.”
Smith continued, “This was not an easy decision. Fortunately, we did not have to make this decision alone, and are grateful to our NAB Show community for engaging with us as we grappled with the rapidly evolving situation. This Show is as much yours as it is ours, and it is important to us that we move forward together. We are still weighing the best potential path forward, and we ask you for your patience as we do so. We are committed to exploring all possible alternatives so that we can provide a productive setting where the industry can engage with the latest technology, hear from industry thought leaders and make the game-changing connections that drive our industry forward.”
All Access President & Publisher Joel Denver commented, “All registrations will be carried over and honored for our next event… we will advise everyone as soon as we have a date set. Let’s all stay safe during this unprecedented health emergency.”
