Official cancellation of the GTI meeting
The decree of the Austrian federal government that (major) events must be cancelled by the beginning of April is being taken by the organizers of the 2020 GTI Meeting as an opportunity to cancel the event on Lake Wörthersee from May 20 to 23, 2020.
Markus Perdacher, mayor of the central venue Reifnitz: "The date of the meeting is still a few weeks ahead, but we would now enter the intensive preparation phase - with an uncertain outcome. The money for purchased ticket will be refunded."
