While many countries worldwide are getting ready to safely reopen, the COVID-19 situation continues to be very serious in Romania.

We feel it’s going to be a long time before we can safely gather over 1,500 people in one location in Romania. Romania is taking every measure possible to open safely, but as in many other countries, both restaurants and clubs are the last ones on the list. The situation is still unclear and the president of Romania has said that he will not hesitate to close down the country again if the number of infected people rises again. Traveling without being put in quarantine is also an issue that needs to be taken into consideration.

Any Summit or Trade Show that cares about their attendees and sponsors, and wishes to bring you the highest quality business environment and best networking opportunities possible needs at least six months to prepare. And with so many uncertainties of traveling and large groups coming together in a safe manner, we feel this is simply not possible to be done in the time frame leading up to late August 2020, our original proposed postponement dates.

“This was a hard decision to make, but with great support from our sponsors we feel that the most professional thing to do in this situation is to postpone the 2020 edition of AWSummit to 2021”, says Roxana Chirila, Event Director of AWSummit. “This comes with respect for your business and caring for your health and your loved ones.”

AWSummit will announce the 2021 dates at a later date. All tickets sold for the 2020 edition will be valid for the 2021 edition of AWSummit.
