We recently reported on Italy, this year’s partner country at FICCI Frames, pulling out amid Coronavirus scare.
However it was not clear on whether the event itself, which witnesses a massive gathering of media delegates from all over, will play by its slated dates, 18 to 20 March at Grand Hyatt Mumbai
Now, it has been confirmed that the event, like many others in the industry, has been postponed and new dates will be announced soon. The official website on the event displays a banner stating a message on why they are cancelling the event.
Here is the message that is displayed on the site:
It is attended by nearly 2000 Indian and 800 foreign delegates encompassing the entire universe of media and entertainment. It attracts not only the industry stakeholders from across the world, but also the government policy makers from India and abroad.
