The Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC), a conferenece that focuses on the practical and applied aspects of the power electronics business, will be held from March 20-24, 2022 and will once again be a face-to-face conference and exhibition for the first time since 2019.

To assure a safe and healthy environment for all APEC participants at the in-person event, the conference organizers are taking special precautions by requiring proof of full vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test (obtained within 72 hours of attendance) as a condition of entrance. To facilitate this screening, APEC has partnered CLEAR Health Pass, enabling attendees to show their vaccination using a free mobile app. According to local current guidelines, face masks while indoors also will be encouraged at the event.

“Although conditions are improving,” said Omer Onar, APEC 2022 General Chairman, “the APEC 2022 Conference Committee recognizes the unique and changing impact the pandemic has had on our practices, families and plans over the last two years. Since the health and safety of APEC attendees is of utmost importance to us, we are providing a CLEAR Health Pass app free to all attendees. Additionally, we are working closely with the George R. Brown Convention Center, as well as federal, state and local public health officials, to incorporate best practices to ensure the highest level of protection at APEC 2022.” 

Health Pass by CLEAR provides secure, digital proof of COVID-related health insights via the CLEAR mobile app. Attendees have been encouraged to download the CLEAR app and complete the process at least 24 hours prior to arrival at the event.
