How Corona Virus has affected the event Industry

Exhibitors and attendees not being able to travel

With the exhibitors and attendees not being able to travel they could not conduct any events. As most of the audience is related to Asia programs are cancelled as they contributed to a huge audience, some most important chunks. For those investing money in the event, it will be a huge loss and having to suffer such a drawback is not an easy thing to cope up with. Thus ending up with cancelling the events. Most of the exhibitors were also not able to make it, this pressurises the event planners to cancel the event.

Effectively managing the technical difficulties is the only challenge to be faced, which keeps your attendees engaged. Here anyone's well being is not affected.

Providing medical boosts

For every event, they will have something unique and everybody won't be ready to take it. Relocating is always not a good option but that doesn't mean certain precautions shouldn't be taken. Calling out for a larger gathering when having such an outbreak in China is not suggestible in case someone is affected and not
