The VFX Planet Summit leadership is closely monitoring the current situation in the region. Our thoughts are with our colleagues, friends, and family across the Middle East.
VFX Planet Summit strongly condemns the recent acts of violence affecting our beloved Arab nations.
Based on direct communications with our partners and community members on the ground, we are relieved to confirm that civilians are currently safe. And living a normal life. We have full confidence in the respectful authorities and governments of Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, and Qatar, who are taking wise and decisive actions to prioritize the safety and comfort of all citizens, residents, and visitors.
We would like to express our deepest gratitude to the Egyptian Government for its tireless efforts during this period. Their work in ensuring a safe aviation environment and providing alternative flight routes has been vital. We commend Egypt’s extreme support for all nations affected by these conditions and its role as a pillar of stability for international travel and the region.
While the VFX Planet Summit is scheduled to take place in Egypt this April, the physical and mental safety of our guests, speakers, and attendees is our absolute priority.
Our upper management is in a continuous session, reviewing real-time updates.
A final decision regarding the summit’s schedule and logistics will be reached and announced within the coming hours.
We sincerely hope for a swift resolution to these conflicts. Our hearts are with those affected, and we look forward to the moment when our global creative family can return to their normal lives.
