Seoul Symposium Cancelled
February 25, 2020 • 0 Comment

Unfortunately, due to the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic in Asia and Europe, we are forced to cancel the event. Please get in contact with us by email for registration refund.

Harsh travel restrictions and quarantines make it impossible for our guests and speakers to plan their journey and join us in a serene atmosphere.

It was a difficult decision for us, as we have put a lot of time and effort in the last 6 months to organize this event, and it is with great sadness that we have to call it off. We stand with our Asian friends and wish for the best in the coming months.

Please sign up for our mailing list for news on the next edition, once the situation has calmed down.
