Most, if not all, of the in-person events that we typically list here are now understandably cancelled or postponed until further notice due to the global COVID-19 outbreak.
Because of this, more events are now looking at ways to run online. In the coming weeks, we're looking to devote this section to digital events, virtual conferences, livestreams, and similar online gatherings. Please do drop us a note (just hit reply) if you have such an event that we can promote here. Even if you're doing a single scheduled talk on Twitch or YouTube Live, say, we might be able to list it.
