Postponement Announcement

The 12th International Balance Symposium will be postponed.

With the recent spread of the COVID-19 virus, the committee set a deadline for making a decision to continue or postpone the upcoming symposium. The deadline has arrived and although we were hoping to find a positive change with respect to the virus, quite the opposite has occurred with the World Health Organisation declaring it "High Risk" on a global scale.

Although South Africa is at the moment unaffected, we feel that it would be irresponsible to continue with the symposium. We consider all of the delegates to be very valuable members of the international wind tunnel testing community and do not feel comfortable putting any of them at any level of risk.

We wanted to allow sufficient time for delegates to cancel bookings and any other arrangements that they may have already made.

At this time we hope to reschedule, likely in 2021. We will provide the updated information as soon as it is available.

The following address: ISSGB2020@csir.co.za will post any new information regarding the symposium.
