Due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and continued regulatory uncertainty, the 2020 GIE+EXPO has been cancelled. OPEI and its partners had been monitoring the situation closely and working with state and local authorities to put on the safest show possible this October. However, the unpredictable nature of such a rapidly evolving environment prohibited this year’s show from taking place. In this video episode of the Grass Roots podcast, Green Industry Pros editor Ryan Whisner talks with OPEI President Kris Kiser about the final decision to cancel this year’s show and the hopes for 2021.
