PUG Challenge 2022
We are delighted to announce that we are back and organising this year’s conference.
Earlier dates
We have chosen earlier dates to optimise the possibility of avoiding the winter viruses.
Hybrid
Following the success of our Virtual Conference in 2020, we believe that holding a hybrid event is giving you the ‘best of both worlds’, you are welcome to attend as an on site delegate as previous conferences, alternatively there is an option to attend virtually which enables a wider audience to engage.
Vienna
We will be holding the on-site event and broadcasting from the Hilton Vienna Park in Vienna, the venue we have all been looking forward to visiting.

We will be sending frequent updates regarding the organisation of our first event as PUG Challenge, in the meantime, we have updated our Terms & Conditions, Privacy Policy and Code of Conduct documents which can be found on our website.
Imposed Sanctions on Russia
In response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the US, UK and European Union, among several other countries, have imposed severe sanctions and export controls against Russia, and individuals and entities associated with the Russian government.
To ensure compliance with these sanctions, we have decided that we will not be accepting registrations from delegates, presenters or sponsors for PUG Challenge (on-site or remotely) from Russia, Belarus, Crimea, the Donetsk People’s Republic and the Luhansk People’s Republic regions of Ukraine, which are the areas covered by the sanctions.
