The Convention was originally scheduled to be held at the International Convention Center on November 19 with 96 speakers and over 1,200 people confirmed to attend, but a fire forced the closure of the building and the rescheduling of the event.
Fortunately, APEC Haus was made available for the Convention with dates changed to 8 – 12 December, and with the extra time, more SMEs have signed up to participate in the SME Marketplace and additional speakers have been added to the program.
