Member Summit 2020 Now Virtual

Updated 22 June 2020

Consortium Annual Member Summit will happen virtually on September 23-25.

The Consortium’s Annual Member Summit is about bringing together a community of passionate people, and it is the strength of our community that makes the event successful.  Our top goal in hosting any event is ensuring that we have a safe environment. Like much of the rest of the world, the Consortium for Service Innovation has been monitoring the impacts of the COVID-19 outbreak. Despite our hopes for an in-person meeting this year, the 2020 Member Summit will now take place virtually. This will be a new format for us, and we’re excited about the possibilities that a virtual event enables – including more Consortium member participation!

Can I get a refund for any travel expenses already incurred?

The Consortium for Service Innovation is not liable for any travel or accommodation expenses already incurred. To avoid a penalty, please cancel or change any existing reservations directly with Austin Proper (at +1 512-628-1500) at least 48 hours in advance of your original arrival date.  We strongly suggest you contact your airline (if applicable) as soon as possible; most have put new refund/rebooking policies in place due to the COVID-19 impacts.
