# SportAccord 2020

SportAccord announced on March 14 the cancellation of the SportAccord World Sport & Business Summit 2020, which had been due to take place from April 19 to 24 in Lausanne, Switzerland.

The international conference, which attracts top sports administrators, international sports federations, Olympic officials, sponsors, and major sports organizers, was initially scheduled to be held in Beijing but was relocated to Lausanne, Switzerland in February.

SportAccord president, Raffaele Chiulli, said, "Our priority is the health and welfare of our international federations and delegates attending our event, so this decision has been taken with the utmost consideration for those who were planning to attend SportAccord 2020 in Lausanne."
