The world looks a bit different in 2021 because of the COVID-19 pandemic, but with the introduction of vaccines, we now have a roadmap that will allow businesses to reopen and people to return to work. This is great for the Meetings and Events industry, which has been impacted severely by lockdown restrictions. To help the industry recuperate its losses, Cignpost Diagnostics has created world-class solutions to help businesses return to normal by combining operational agility with leading scientific test technologies; therefore enabling the Meeting and Events industry to resume providing world-class services.

The impact of COVID-19 on Meetings and Events industry

As we all know, the past year has been a strange one. Many of the biggest global events have had to be postponed or cancelled because of government restrictions. Now that we have a vaccine, it has provided a lifeline for the industry to recover, and Cignpost Diagnostics is continuing this trend, providing the security and safety needed for the return of some major events, such as the European Golf Tour.

How do Meetings and Events organisers keep people safe?

Safety is the number one priority for the Meetings and Events industry to resume this year, so getting a plan in place is essential to allowing mass gatherings of people again. Cignpost Diagnostics provides the perfect solution to getting people connected again through its state-of-the-art testing facilities, which can provide test results within two to four hours. Cignpost Diagnostics’ testing facilities have already proven successful, described by the BBC after providing testing kits to them as “extremely professional, staffed by a team of technicians who efficiently turn our tests around quickly with results back with us within a few short hours.” With restrictions being lifted, we can see the light at the end of the tunnel when it comes to hosting Meetings and Events. However, we must ensure that Meetings and Events maintain health and safety to make sure the industry is kept secure.
