Dear SERVSIG Community,
After much deliberation and monitoring of the COVID-19 situation, we have come to the difficult conclusion that we need to cancel this year’s Frontiers conference. For those of you who had registered for the conference, we will refund your registration fee.
The hosts of Frontiers 2021 have kindly agreed that any paper that was accepted for this year’s Frontier’s conference can be presented at the 2021 conference that will be held June 10-13, 2021, with the consortium occurring June 8-9, 2021. Please mark your calendars for now, and the conference hosts will follow up with details about the location and venue.
We are pleased to announce that we will host the 2022 Frontiers conference at Babson College from Wednesday, June 22, 2022 to Sunday, June 26, 2022. We hope to see many of you then.
