The 2021 Midwest Broadcast & Multimedia Technology Conference has been postponed until next year.

It had been set for Nov. 17, produced by a partnership of state broadcast associations in Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana.

“It has become apparent that we cannot host an in-person event that delivers an outstanding experience for our attendees, our exhibitors, and our speakers,” the Ohio Association of Broadcasters wrote in an email to its community.

“The challenges of the current environment have left us with too many uncertainties to present a meaningful in-person event. While we are disappointed not to be able to conduct this year’s conference, we would be more disappointed about an event that falls short of what our participants have come to expect.”

The OAB decided not to convert it to a virtual event and instead plans to hold the event in 2022 on a date to be announced.

Registration charges for both exhibitors and attendees are in the process of being refunded.

Approximately 180 engineers and broadcasters attended the conference in 2019, which drew 50 exhibitors.
