Chris Skeith, AEO, Chief Executive Officer
“Due to the current uncertainty around COVID-19, we have decided to cancel this year’s National Facetime Exhibitor Masterclass.
The very essence of this event is about celebrating live events and the value of face to face marketing. This is a message we'll continue to stand by but right now, there is no greater priority than the health and safety of our attendees. Next year’s Masterclass plans will be confirmed as soon as possible.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank the NEC for their ongoing support and our attendees for their understanding and look forward to seeing you all again soon.”
