MAC Launches 2020 Virtual Regional Conference

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 6, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The Merchant Acquirers' Committee (MAC) is pleased to announce its Virtual Regional Conference to be held on October 20-22, 2020. This online conference will replace the three in-person regional events that MAC previously held in the east, west and midwest regions each year. By combining and changing the events to an online venue, MAC can provide a COVID-19 safe environment for providing the most up-to-date educational information as well as expand its reach in the payment's ecosystem.

The Virtual Regional Conference features a content-rich agenda in a format that accommodates busy schedules. Each day will deliver over two hours of engaging content and networking opportunities. A curated set of speakers will provide live sessions with dedicated time for audience Q & A. Day 1 will focus on Payment Regulators, Day 2 is dedicated to the Enforcement Ecosystem, and Day 3 will highlight Covid Impacts on the Payment Landscape.

Melissa Sutherland, Virtual Regional Co-Chair commented, "We are excited to be able to hold our first Virtual Regional Event. COVID-19 has thrown a wrench in many plans; however, MAC was determined not to let it cancel our regional events. I am proud that we were able to combine them into an exciting new format and are able to offer the same high-quality programming that we are known for providing. The great perk is that we can accommodate more attendees with this new format. We have over 200 registrants and expect to double that number." 

The Virtual Regional Conference is free for MAC Members and $149 for non-members. Sponsors include: LegitScript, Verisk, Arnall, Golden, Gregory LLP, and Salus Payments. To register, view the complete agenda, or learn more about the event, visit MAC's website: www.macmember.org.
