& 3^rd September 2020 due to recent #nCoV-19 outbreak. This

The conference was all set to host about 3,000 attendees from over 40 countries, over 200+ tech partners,
60+ startups, 50+ investors and 100+ speakers this week (19-21 Feb) at
Marina Bay Sands Convention Centre,
Singapore.

Ester Martinez, CEO & Editor-In-Chief,
People Matters, shared how the community's health & safety should be a
prime factor in such circumstances. "It
has been a difficult month for all of us in the region, with uncertainty and
increasing worry. We have been monitoring the Coronavirus outbreak very
closely, and last week we had to take the difficult decision of postponing
People Matters TechHR Singapore. The safety of our community is our prime
responsibility, and we will go to any extent to ensure that. After careful
deliberation with our partners, speakers, and leaders from the region, we have
set the new dates for People Matters TechHR Singapore 2020 as September 1,
2 & 3, 2020."

She further added on how it's important to
collaborate & stand together in tough times like these. "Challenges are always opportunities to come
together and become stronger. I would like to thank the community for the
overwhelming support and encouragement. I hope the situation comes back to
normal soon. We remain committed to providing our community with the most
insightful content, the most innovative & immersive experience, and the
most practical learning experiences. "

Kartik Krishnamurthy, MD, Cornerstone OnDemand Asia said, "TechHR
is an extremely important event for Cornerstone OnDemand Asia that allows us to
showcase our brand and overall value proposition to the broader HR community.
It is unfortunate that this year due to the nCoVid-19 epidemic, the event had
to be moved to later in the year. I believe the team at People Matters made the
right decision that was in the best interest of the delegates, participants and
more importantly, the broader community in Singapore to postpone the event to
avoid any potential spread of the virus. The team was extremely collaborative
in their outreach and very decisive. We at Cornerstone OnDemand remain
committed to participating in the event when rescheduled."

Shashwat Kumar, VP, Advisory & Cloud
Solutions at Alight Solutions echoed the same sentiment, "With the current nCoV-19 health emergency, it's imperative for people
to focus on their families and the organizations they lead. People Matters'
decision to postpone People Matters TechHR Singapore, in my mind, was timely,
bold and a very sensitive decision. The conference is all about learning,
innovation, & meaningful conversations. Definitely look forward to
September."

The eminent speakers and
global leaders who were supposed to join the conference as per the original
dates have extended their overwhelming support for the new dates and have also
agreed to host virtual learning sessions for the registered delegates.

David Green, a renowned
people-analytics thought leader, has expressed confidence & support for the
new dates. He
said, "This was obviously a difficult decision for the People Matters team. But
it was the right decision in my view. I look forward to speaking at People
Matters TechHR Singapore now on the new dates in September, and I'm sure that
the show will be even better." 

Chin Yin Ong, Head of People at Grab has supported People
Matters decision and said "I am
excited and looking forward to People Matters TechHR Singapore in September."

Anderson Tan, Director, Xprienz Pte Ltd said "It
might be an expedient move
but I'm sure everyone will surely want to support People Matters TechHR
Singapore again when it's back in Sept 2020."
