The Illuminating Engineering Society (IES) Board of Directors recently announced that the 2020 IES Annual Conference, originally scheduled for August 6-8 in New Orleans, has been canceled and will be moved to a virtual setting.
The IES stated:
IES’s priority is the health and safety of the lighting community, including our members, staff, supporters, vendors and volunteers. As the COVID-19 pandemic continued to unfold, it became clear that in the face of an unprecedented situation, we needed to make tough choices. While it took longer than expected to reach a resolution, we believe that this was handled with the precision necessary to preserve the well-being of the Society while creating an opportunity for success both in the present and future.
DATES: August 24-August 28 and August 31-September 4
TIMES: Official times to be determined, there will be two blocks of sessions each day.
IES MEMBER REGISTRATION: $249, with reduced rates for Emerging Professions and Student Members (who must wait on registering until the benefits of the Emerging Professionals program are announced for the year)
NON-MEMBER REGISTRATION: $349
