Event will transform into a digital experience the week of October 13th

Chantilly, Va. (June 18, 2020) – The Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors’ National Association (�鶹���), the leader in promoting quality and excellence in the sheet metal and air conditioning industry, today announced the cancellation of its in-person 77th Annual Convention, scheduled to be held September 27-30 in Colorado Springs, Colo., due to public health and safety concerns surrounding the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

�鶹��� is instead working with members, industry partners and service providers, keynote speakers, instructors and many others to convert its largest event of the year into a digital experience called The �鶹��� Edge Conference: A Virtual Education Forum, to be held October 13-15, 2020.  New registration information, sessions and events, and industry partner opportunities will be shared here and in Member Update with the �鶹��� community in the coming weeks.

“We were excited and prepared to host a memorable, in-person �鶹��� Annual Convention this September. However, after careful consideration and prioritizing the health and safety of everyone involved – including staff, volunteers, partners, members and attendees – we have made the difficult decision to transition to a virtual experience this fall,” said Vince Sandusky, �鶹���’s Chief Executive Officer. “Our team is determined to deliver the same robust educational opportunities our membership has come to expect from �鶹���, only virtually through The �鶹��� Edge Conference.”

Details and new developments regarding The �鶹��� Edge Conference will be shared on �鶹���’s conference website as they are finalized.
