The World Health Organization has declared the coronavirus outbreak a public health emergency of international concern; therefore, IFMA and our Asia-Pacific chapters agree that it is prudent to postpone the upcoming World Workplace Asia conference to April 6-8, 2021. We regret any inconvenience caused by taking this precautionary measure; however, the health and safety of our conference attendees, staff, speakers and exhibitors is our top priority. Registered World Workplace Asia attendees will receive a refund of their conference fees.
To help industry professionals continue building their knowledge and skills, we have organized the IFMA Global Virtual conference which launches April 15, 2020. More information can be found at https://ifmaglobalvirtual.ifma.org. Continue following social media and check our event website for additional updates.
On behalf of the entire IFMA community, we express our heartfelt sympathy to those hardest hit by the virus. We encourage all facility management professionals to share information and best practices for planning or implementing infectious disease response strategies. For the latest information, learning opportunities and materials on COVID-19 infection prevention and control, strategic preparedness and risk management, you can visit IFMA’s Coronavirus Preparedness Resource Center.
