Latin America. After seriously considering the health and safety of all attendees, as well as the quality of the event experience for its members and other members, NATPE Miami 2022 canceled the scheduled in-person conference scheduled for January 18-20 in Miami, Florida.
The decision was announced by JP Bommel, president and CEO of the National Association of Television Program Executives (NATPE), the premier trade association for producers, distributors, broadcasters and buyers of content across all platforms.
NATPE is in the process of developing a plan to create both virtual and face-to-face events throughout the year, either at no cost or limited, in appreciation for the support NATPE has received from many people around the world.
JP Bommel, President and CEO of NATPE, commented, "Although this decision from a financial standpoint will cost the organization a great deal of money, that was secondary to our main concern, which is putting the well-being of our members first. We implement a lot of security protocols, but it's not enough given the intensity of this virus that is spreading at a huge rate around the world. We look forward to producing a strong conference at the right time and in the best of circumstances, and providing all of our attendees with the greatest value we can offer."
