Focus New York 2021 (Postponed to 2022)
Announcement: Focus New York Postponed to 2022
We were looking forward to gathering in person again. However, due to the emergence of the COVID-19 Delta variant and travel restrictions placed on many companies in the New York City area, we’ve decided to postpone this event until 2022.
If you’re already registered, your registration will roll over to a new date once it’s confirmed. You’ll receive communication with new event information as soon as it’s available. We look forward to a safe and well-attended Focus New York in 2022.
