ELK GROVE, Calif., March 02, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The DVCon U.S. 2020 Steering Committee has adjusted the conference and exhibition schedule to conclude at the close of the exhibition on Wednesday, March 4 at 6:00pm, a day earlier than originally planned.

To accommodate the cancellation of some of the presentations as a result of issues and concerns related to COVID-19, DVCon U.S. is compressing the schedule to maintain a full technical program over the course of three days. Some presenters had to cancel their participation due to recent corporate travel mandates, leaving some vacancies that have now been filled by going from a four-day to a three-day event.

Please visit the website for the updated program matrix for Tuesday, March 3^rd and Wednesday, March 4^th.

Accellera and the DVCon U.S. Steering Committee would like to thank all of our attendees and participants for their flexibility as we make adjustments to the conference so that we can continue to provide a vibrant and highly technical, informative program.
