The coronavirus has caused the cancellation or postponement of more than 24 trade exhibitions and conferences including Mobile World Congress (MWC), the world's largest trade show for the mobile phone industry.

Mobile World Congress was canceled last week as speakers and attendees canceled their plans to attend en masse.

The Beijing Auto Show originally scheduled for late April was postponed earlier this week to an undetermined date. Since the disease, named COVID-19, emerged from the city of Wuhan in late December, U.S. airlines have cut service to much of China and Hong Kong andhave been canceled or postponed. Major corporations have pulled their executives from attending conferences across the globe, including major trade shows in the U.S., as fears of a possible pandemic spread of the virus gripped the world meeting market.
