On Thursday, April 15 Steven Adelman—Vice President, Event Safety Alliance—will be speaking on "The Future of Large Special Events." COVID-19 has been a game-changer in the event industry. As events start anew, the people who work at them expect their safety and health will be protected. Meanwhile, attendees will bring their own beliefs, behaviors, and attitudes along as they enter the gate. Portable sanitation companies will need to respond to all of this, and help their customers do so as well. Our speaker—an expert on the considerations that will be necessary for large events—will help you explore the various considerations for getting it right. Adelman is head of Adelman Law Group, PLLC in Scottsdale, Arizona, USA, and Vice President of the Event Safety Alliance. His practice focuses on risk and safety at live events throughout North America, and he serves as an expert witness in crowd-related lawsuits. Steve Adelman is principal author of the authoritative Crowd Management standard, ANSI ES1.9- 2020, and lead author of the Event Safety Alliance Reopening Guide, which has been translated into nearly a dozen languages. He is a law professor, author of the "Adelman on Venues" blog, and he recently served as health and safety director for a series of live events in the United States. Last But Not Least!
