[SatNews] The shows will go on! There are NO plans to cancel this important forum in New York City, one day before CCW/SATCON…
The half-day forum on mitigating satellite interference planned for the day before CCW/Satcon in New York on Tuesday, November 13, 2012 will be held as scheduled.
Word came down from the show’s sponsors and read as follows:
Despite the damage and destruction from hurricane Sandy, we will go forward with this important event, just as those who have organized CCW/Satcon have committed to continue with this annual conference. And as industry professionals and participants gather, we hope you will be among them and will take advantage of the “Stop Interference Now—Next Steps” program taking place at HBO.
If you have already registered, we look forward to seeing you. If you have not yet signed up please follow the instructions in the program agenda below. Please register very soon so we may firm up our plans and presentations for the event.
As for the difficulties being faced by those living in the path of Sandy’s rage, we wish you the very best in overcoming the harm and hardships you’ve suffered. Our thoughts and prayers will continue to be with you.
For those of you planning to travel to the New York City area, please know that your attendance and participation will be gratefully received as a statement in support of the entire satellite industry community. This community went to unprecedented effort to assure that the sharing of news and information about the massive storm remained available to everyone across the country. And this community of dedicated experts and pros helped avoid tragedy and saved lives through their commitment and service.
If you have any concerns or questions, please contact us by e-mail or telephone.
We wish you well and hope to see you at HBO for our planned program.
Best wishes,
