ABS East Virtual 2020 | Information Management Network (IMN) | 1 December 2020 | Virtual Event

During the uncertain times we continue to experience globally, the themes inherent to ABS East® are more relevant than ever as securitization will serve an integral part in the revitalization of the real economy post Covid-19. IMN is committed to helping the ABS community connect and learn, which will be key to helping the industry fulfill this important role.

ABS East 2020 will take place virtually this December 1-2, delivering the same valuable and timely program content you've come to expect from our annual in-person gathering. While ensuring the health and safety of our valued industry members, the shift to a fully digital event will not only provide new and unique benefits through our virtual platform, but also enables an even wider global audience the opportunity to participate.

Our event platform provides sponsors and attendees with opportunities to network with industry peers, participate in live sessions, engage with expert speaker faculty, and watch additional content on-demand for added convenience.
