Safety Measures

TechNet International will be held in-person in Brussels with additional health and safety protocols in place, to meet all local regulations at the time of the meeting.

Some of the measures include:

• Suggested wearing of FFP2 (N95) face-masks for all participants throughout the conference centre, except while eating or drinking and seated in the main session room or in an exhibit space. You may take off your mask while seated and also when eating or drinking.
• Widespread availability of hand sanitizer dispensers
• More frequent cleaning and disinfection throughout the conference centre

These will be adjusted as necessary as the situation evolves with the health and safety of our participants remaining a top priority.
