Zona de Azar Malta – SiGMA Show Moves to April Following Early Roll Out of Vaccine

Malta.- 4th December 2020 www.zonadeazar.com The early release vaccine gives a positive boost to an events industry that has been hard hit by the health crisis.

SiGMA Group has announced a decision to postpone its 2021 event, SiGMA Europe. The expo, which was scheduled to take place in Malta from the 16th to 18th February, will now open its doors mid April, running from the 13th to 15th.

The change of dates follows approval from the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency for the UK to begin administering the world’s first clinically approved vaccine in early December.

UK delegates make up one of the largest groups to attend SiGMA Group’s Europe-held event.

“The early release of the Pfizer BioNTech vaccine makes us hopeful that a sense of normality will now resume within the next four months. Our recent Virtual expo was a huge success, but we hope to now continue building these relationships in person as we launch into what looks set to be a very exciting year,” said Founder of SiGMA Group, Eman Pulis (seen left).
