PNWER's 30th Annual Summit to be a Virtual/In-Person Hybrid Event
As the COVID-19 pandemic began impacting our communities, PNWER made the difficult decision to postpone the 2020 Annual Summit. However, we are now looking forward to hosting the 2021 Summit in Big Sky, Montana, August 15-19, 2021. With consideration to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the continuation of the closure of the Canada-U.S. border to non-essential travel, PNWER is currently planning the 2021 Summit as a hybrid event. The 2021 Summit promises robust in-person and virtual content and networking opportunities which will allow our in-person attendees to enjoy all that Big Sky has to offer as well as the opportunity to reach a broader audience virtually throughout the region and as far away as Ottawa and Washington, D.C. We hope that most of our delegates will be able to be vaccinated before August and ready to join us in Montana!
