Cancellation of remaining IIMS face to face events


With the pandemic continuing to strengthen its hold on the world,


IIMS has taken the only decision it can, which is to cancel all remaining face to face events planned for 2020. That means no live events in Malta, Dublin, Scotland and the south of England this autumn.


The spread of COVID-19 also means that the 10th Anniversary plans that the IIMS India Branch Committee had in place for November 2020 have been put on hold and the event will not take place this year. They are looking at the possibility of shifting the event back to the latter part of 2021.


The annual IIMS US Conference held in Baltimore in January each year has also been cancelled to be replaced by an online only event in 2021. The schedule is being finalised and will be released soon.


IIMS is now working hard to put together Marine Surveying Fest III, two days of online celebrations of marine surveying with plenty of knowledge presented by experts to be shared with attendees, either in real time or on catch up video. Watch for the schedules to be released soon, but the dates for your diary are Monday 30th November (yacht and small craft surveyors) and Wednesday 2nd December (cargo and commercial ship surveyors).
