Disappointed that SNS2018 was a casualty of the "Beast from the East" last week. Proeon's stand was primed and ready to welcome colleagues to learn about our expertise and services. However, we understand completley that the organisers put safety at the forefront of their decision, to avoid participants and exhibitors alike having to try and battle against the elements to attend the event. We are grateful that despite heavy Snow, ice and howling winds, we managed to keep things going here at Proeon, with colleagues battling the elements or managing to participate working from home.
