As the COVID?19 pandemic continues to affect the way of life of security professionals and citizens around the globe, ASIS International is currently exploring options for Global Security Exchange (GSX) 2020, scheduled to take place 21?23 September in Atlanta, Georgia, USA.
At this stage, they are evaluating all means of safely accommodating attendees at the Georgia World Congress Center in accordance with health and safety recommendations?and any means of potentially moving the event, in part or in full, to a virtual environment that offers the same high-quality content, instructors, and dynamic interaction that attendees have come to expect from their in?person GSX gatherings.
Their plan at present is to confirm whether GSX 2020 will take place live on or before 22 June. They believe this will provide their attendees and exhibitors with the notice they need to make arrangements for their participation. They will deliver an update on the status of GSX 2020 no later than 22 June.
The ASIS International Global Board of Directors and HQ Team, appreciate the attendees’ understanding as they make the decision that is right for their attendees, speakers, staff, exhibitors, and other stakeholders.
All GSX 2020 decisions will be driven by what is in the best interests of the safety and well?being of all GSX constituents. Given the rapidly evolving nature of the world, they believe the knowledge exchange and support network GSX provides are more important than ever.
They would also like to take a moment to recognize and thank those among their membership who have worked tirelessly on behalf of their organizations and communities and recognize and honor the work of all healthcare providers and first responders globally.
Please stay tuned for more information and stay safe.
