Ortus Solutions took the difficult but necessary decision to cancel the D.C. workshop titled “Build Secure MVC ColdFusion Applications,” amidst growing concerns over coronavirus. The two-day workshop was scheduled for April 20th and 21st at the Regus in Washington, D.C. 

“While we were really looking forward to coming to D.C. this year since we were also going to attend the Adobe CF Summit East, we understand that we must be proactive and take the necessary precautions and steps to ensure the safety of our community,” said Luis Majano, CEO of Ortus Solutions. “We are closely monitoring the situation. Our priority is the wellbeing of our attendees and staff. Tickets will be fully refunded and we hope we can come back soon!”

Ortus Solutions has a variety of workshops and conferences scheduled for this year, including another one in D.C. in June. Given the current environment, there will be updates in the coming weeks regarding the status of these events. Into the Box 2020 is still scheduled for May 5th -8th, but Ortus will continue to evaluate the situation and react accordingly.

Your ColdFusion Upgrade Passed. Did Your Business Workflows?
