Event Policy.
If a booked event is postponed, played without spectators or cancelled before it begins, ISM states that it will work to move the investment to the new date or provide full credit toward a future ISM event.
Its IATA-accredited Event Services team also supports adjustments to lodging, transportation, reservations and related services booked through ISM. Questions can be directed to EventServices@ism-usa.com.
