Nordic Summit 2020 postponed

Following advice from the Norwegian Health Authorities, it has been decided to postpone the Nordic Summit 2020.

The event, produced by NCE Media and SVG Europe, was due to take place on Thursday 12 March 2020 at Media City in Bergen.

The decision was made with delegate and speaker safety and health in mind following concerns about the potential impact of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak around Europe.

Media City Bergen chief executive officer Anne Jacobsen said: “I am sorry we have had to postpone the SVG Europe Nordic Summit at this time. However we look forward to rescheduling soon and to welcoming both our partner SVG Europe and all participants in the Summit to Media City Bergen at a later date.”

SVG Europe general manager Joe Hosken added: “The safety, security and good health of participants at SVG Europe events is of the highest priority. Following the postponement of other industry events around Europe and taking into account the advice of the local health authorities it is in the best interests of everyone that we push the event back to later in the year.

“We would like to assure delegates, speakers and sponsors alike that this decision has not been taken lightly. We are committed to putting on the event once it has been deemed safe to do so. Thank you for your understanding.”

All registered delegates, speakers and sponsors have been informed of the decision by email.

A new date for the event will be announced in due course.
