COVID-19: A message from Childs Davidson

Childs Davidson is closely monitoring the evolution of the Coronavirus situation and changes in World Health Organisation travel advice that could affect upcoming forums of the FMCG Institute globally.

All FMCG Institute forums that are scheduled will still take place as planned. However, we will continue to observe the current advice for each the countries in which we operate and, want to assure our members that we have technology in place to run these meetings remotely (via Zoom) should the need arise.

We understand that this may have an impact on the experience of some members who value the face-to-face contact that our forums provide. However, we are committed to maintaining continuity for our members and believe we will still be able to hold productive roundtables in this way.

We will provide updates as the situation evolves. Best wishes to members and their families. Stay safe.

From the Childs Davidson Team
