It’s disappointing that the annual BOMA Georgia Trade Show had to be canceled because of the danger of COVID-19. The show was scheduled for May 6th, and we were all looking forward to attending, but it’s essential to keep people safe and healthy, and it’s far from the only conference or event that needed to be canceled or postponed. With any luck, BOMA 2020 will be held on its revised date in October, but until we’re able to meet in person, here are a few FAQs to help you assess and meet your security needs.
