European Direct Selling Congress 2020 Canceled

We sold out in an early stage the 2020 congress which would be held 19 – 20 September in the Heart of Amsterdam (Leidseplein) – The Netherlands, in the famous DeLaMar Theater,

However the Dutch government has a 1.5 metre social distance policy for Theaters which mean we could host only a small group.

“The basic rules, such as avoiding busy places and staying 1.5 metres apart, apply to everyone. These rules also apply in shopping streets, parks and recreation areas. To ensure everyone can follow these rules, the government is working together with businesses and organisations, including employers’ federations,  trade unions, sector associations and Dutch rail company NS.  Every business is different.

 

For smaller shops and restaurants the 1.5 metre rule means they can admit fewer people. Other businesses have small workspaces or narrow corridors. It is impossible for the government to take decisions or introduce measures that provide a solution for every business and answer everyone’s questions. Solutions need to be tailored, and the government is willing to provide input and support where possible.”

It was a hard decision for us, however safety first.

We are working on an other solution for the 2021 Congress, keep in touch, and we hope to see you all soon in person again!

Tickets will be refunded through Eventbrite.
