IP Week in London 2020 was the last #oilandgas conference I physically attended before world-wide reactions to #COVID19 (which wasn't really a topic discussed) moved events online.
It will have a different (but maybe by then familiar) feel to it in 2021.

Soho in London tonight.
Absolutely shocking.
We have learnt absolutely nothing.
Four months later, I’m still recovering from COVID.
Yet despite this shocking scene
I hope not one person contracts it.
No one deserves it.
Yet still just unfathomable.https://t.co/AoKnz93SFd
