Last updated 5/29/2020: Our team is actively monitoring the disease situation that has been named “coronavirus disease 2019” (abbreviated “COVID-19”) with direction from officials at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention(CDC), the World Health Organization (WHO) and our venue partners. After new guidance issued from the White House, and the CDC, we realize it is simply not possible, under current conditions, to execute certain events at this time and responsibly deliver the event value NACS strives for.

As a result, NACS has made the difficult decision to alter or postpone certain events:

NACS Convenience Summit Asia: Postponed to March 2-4, 2021
NACS Convenience Summit Europe: Postponed until June 2021
NACS Industry Update Luncheons: Postponed until the fall
NACS Leadership for Success: Postponed to August 9-14, 2020
NACS Executive Leadership Program: Postponed to November 1-5, 2020
NACS Financial Leadership Program: Postponed to November 1-6, 2020
NACS Marketing Leadership Program: Postponed to November 1-6, 2020

NACS is committed to planning safe events and providing guidance as it becomes available from government agencies and public health experts. Any further updates will be communicated directly to event attendees, and posted here, as they occur.
