I am writing in regard to SportAccord 2020, to
provide an update on the status of our upcoming event in Beijing, China
given the current Coronavirus outbreak.
Our thoughts are with the people of China and families affected by the
outbreak. SportAccord is monitoring the situation and we are following the
recommendations provided by the Chinese Authorities, the World Health

We will continue to monitor the situation
closely and share any developments regarding SportAccord 2020. Please rest
