  The International Magnesium Association (IMA) is scheduled to hold the 78th World Magnesium Conference in Fukuoka, Japan, from August 25 to 27, 2021. IMA is closely monitoring the guidance issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the World Health Organization, and the Japanese government regarding COVID-19 to determine the format of the 2021 IMA Annual World Magnesium Conference. If an in-person meeting can be held, the venue will be the Hilton Fukuoka Sea Hawk Hotel. Should it be deemed unsafe to convene a physical event, IMA will organize a virtual conference during the same period.
