To help and support the current actions being taken all around the world to battle the coronavirus, more and more events are being either rescheduled, postponed or completely canceled. A large number of them are also turning to virtual means for participants and visitors not to lose their place as well as the knowledge these events can provide.

An important example is the LIFE Info Day 2020. There is a very important event that was set to take place on April 30, 2020. The event will still happen but due to the coronavirus outbreak as a precaution measure, the event will now be a virtual conference.

The networking event that was supposed to take place after the conference will now be a series of bilateral virtual meetings but will involve several EASME experts. It appears that more and more events are going to turn to a virtual solution for the participants not to miss the opportunity of exploring new ideas, meeting new potential partners and establishing stronger networks.
