DECISION OF THE FRENCH PRIME MINISTER OF 11 AUGUST 2020
GL EVENTS (ISIN: FR0000066672 - TICKER: GLO), THE INTEGRATED EVENT INDUSTRY GROUP, DULY NOTES THE ANNOUNCEMENT BY THE FRENCH PRIME MINISTER
The Group duly notes the announcement of 11 August 2020 by French Prime Minister, Mr. Jean Castex, maintaining the ban on public gatherings of more than 5,000 people until 31 October 2020. The Prime Minister also indicated that, in accordance with the strict application of public health measures, French regional authorities (préfets) will have the authority to grant exceptions to this rule.
In this context, the Group will adapt the exhibitions that have already been planned in order to receive 5,000 people per day and per hall. In addition, all public health measures will be adopted by the Group to ensure optimal conditions of safety for the organisation of events.
The Group furthermore notes that events organised and hosted for professionals are in no way comparable to the unauthorised gatherings observed in the recent weeks (beach parties, rave parties, etc.). All events organised by GL events are systematically granted authorisations by regional authorities.
Since the beginning of the public health crisis, the Group has been rigorously applying the guidelines imposed by the governments of the different countries where it operates and safeguarding the health of its employees, partners, exhibitors and attendees remains its top priority.
Finally, the Group's activities are not limited to the organisation of large-scale events. The Group also organises, hosts and produces services for projects of more limited sizes which continue to be authorised (congresses, conventions, seminars, conferences, etc.).
