Event Details

XPONENTIAL 2020NOW A FULLY VIRTUAL EXPERIENCE
 
As events and activities continue to evolve in response to COVID-19, it will likely come as no surprise to you that we are making one final shift this year. AUVSI XPONENTIAL 2020 will now take place entirely as a virtual event over the planned dates of October 5 – 8! While it was our collective hope that the fall would bring about a safe opportunity for our community to engage in-person in Dallas, the current rise in COVID-19 cases has made clear the need for a safe alternative.
 
Although we are disappointed that we won’t have the opportunity to greet you in a session room or in the XPO Hall, we are excited to fully engage with you through our immersive virtual event platform. This virtual experience enables direct and meaningful interactions with speakers, session content, exhibits, and formal and informal networking just as you’d expect in-person. As a bonus, you’ll also have access to recorded sessions, on-demand content, Community Q&A and networking for months after the event concludes.
 
As we finalize preparations for the event, we want to thank you — our AUVSI community — for your patience, understanding, and flexibility this year. It has been a challenging stretch but know that we are adapting this event with your interests in mind and with our standing commitment to providing an outstanding and valuable experience for all attendees.
