Michelin has cancelled its 2020 Movin’On Summit on Sustainable Mobility due to the ongoing COVID-19 Coronavirus pandemic. The event was originally scheduled for June 3-5, in Montreal.
Commenting on the cancellation, Florent Menegaux, Michelin Group president and Honorary President of Movin’On said: “Faced with this unprecedented global health crisis, the main priority of the Movin’On team is to protect the health of our employees, our ecosystem partners and our participants. This is why we have decided to cancel the Movin’On World Summit, which was planned to take place in Montreal.”
Michelin says Movin’On typically brings together almost 5,000 people each year from the major players in sustainable mobility, both collectively and individually. It aims to offer concrete solutions and innovations to meet everyone’s mobility needs, with the aim of contributing to the progress of society while acting for the good of the planet.
The company says it is anxious to continue advancing its projects and its teams are currently working in close collaboration with all stakeholders of the Movin’On ecosystem to find alternative scenarios. Emphasis will be placed on the development of working groups (communities of interest), which together remain committed to building concrete solutions for sustainable mobility.
The next events in the Movin’On ecosystem will be announced soon, the company adds.
