The new season is coming. Players and organisers are keen on returning to the boards. More chess events than ever seem to be in the making. But planning and managing events is complicated by uncertainties over Covid-19 variants, the efficacy of the vaccination programmes, and ever-changing public regulations. ChessTech is bringing experts and activists together for a one-day conference to help federations and clubs cope with these challenges as well as to make the best out of tens of millions new players who discovered online chess or got hooked by The Queen’s Gambit on Netflix.
