MLTC 2020 Update: Be Safe
As you may know, Puerto Rico has experienced a series of earthquakes. While some parts of the island have lost power, the conference hotel has power and is operational.
While there have been some speaker cancellations, the Partnership is convening the conference with a scaled-back version of the schedule.
The Partnership holds everyone’s safety as the highest priority. So as the hours and days unfold, we’re encouraging everyone to make the best decision for their personal safety.
As the Partnership Board and staff know more, additional updates will be provided. Please continue to monitor your email and social media for future updates.
