We have been notified that the Jacob K Javits Convention Center has cancelled our dates for the July IECSC New York 2021 show. Unfortunately, due to the ongoing COVID-19 crisis and the restrictions in place for capacity, we will not be able to host the show in 2021. We will return to New York on March 13-15, 2022 and expect to be back with a show, education and experience that can be enjoyed in a safer environment.
