NASHUA, N.H.—While travel restrictions have been lifted throughout Asia Pacific and Toronto where severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) has come under control, ongoing global concerns as well as limited company travel have prompted the rescheduling of CleanRooms China 2003 from July to Dec. 12-13 at the Shanghai International Convention Center.

"We know that the SARS virus is a matter of major concern to all attendees, exhibitors, speakers and participants," says James Enos, vice president and group publishing director. "Considering the health situation and the impact on both domestic and international travel throughout Asia, we feel this global epidemic will have a negative impact on all aspects of our event in July and prevent us from delivering a high-end product."

CleanRooms China 2003 is geared toward contamination control technology end users in semiconductor, microelectronic and life sciences manufacturing.
