Update on Rolls 6 conference

Due to continued uncertainty surrounding the Coronavirus (COVID-19) and the current market conditions, unfortunately, the Rolls 6 organising committee has taken the decision to cancel the conference, which had been scheduled to take place at One Great George Street, London on 23-25 June 2021.

Only a short time ago we felt optimistic that June 2021 was far enough away to confidently proceed with our plans. Following the latest news, guidance and updates from the UK Government and World Health Organisation, and having our delegates’, sponsors’, exhibitors’ and employees’ wellbeing as our main priority, we have agreed to cancel the conference. This is not a decision that we have taken lightly, and not the news we wished to deliver to you. 

While the conference will not be taking place next year, we are looking to host a series of short online seminars on Rolls in 2021, each comprising 3-4 presentations. If you are interested in presenting a lecture or would like further details, please email Henk Bolt at [email protected] by Friday 18 December 2020.

On behalf of IOM3 and of the organising committee, we would once again like to take this opportunity to thank you for your understanding and support of Rolls 6, and we look forward to sharing details with you about a future Rolls conference in due course.
