M-EXPO Wire Processing Technology Event Postponed Due to COVID-19 Pandemic
May 7, 2020 | IPCEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
The 4th Annual M-EXPO Wire Processing Technology event, produced by WHMA/IPC, has been postponed due to COVID-19 and the uncertainty of the situation in the fall. The October 14-16, 2020 event will take place next fall, 2021 in Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, Mexico, pending improved conditions.
The health and welfare of all M-EXPO participants, as well as local, national and international communities at large, are our highest priority. For the past several weeks, M-EXPO and WHMA/IPC have been closely monitoring the COVID-19 situation and feel it is now clear that postponing the event is the best decision for all of those involved.
“The health, safety, and well-being of the show’s sponsors, attendees, exhibitors, speakers, and staff is the primary concern to M-EXPO,” said David Bergman, WHMA executive director. “Given the public health emergency we are currently facing, we believe the only action at this time is for M-EXPO 2020 to be postponed.”
M-EXPO looks forward to showcasing your latest wire and cable processing equipment, tools, materials and technologies to Mexico next fall, 2021!
