   • What is Your Cancellation Policy?

     Standard Cancellation Policy & Executive Meeting Cancellation Policy

      

     Cancellations and Transfers
     We understand that plans change. Our goal is to make changing or cancelling your registration simple and fair.

     Cancel at least 60 days before the event for a refund
     If we receive your cancellation request at least 60 days before the first day of the event, we will refund your registration less 50% of your registration fee.

     Send a colleague instead
     You can transfer your registration to a colleague at no charge, before or after the refund deadline, up until the day before the event begins. Just send us their name and email address.

     Within 60 days of the event
     Registrations are non-refundable within 60 days of the event, including if you are unable to attend. You are still welcome to transfer your registration to a colleague.

     Why we have a refund deadline: as an event approaches, we commit to meals, meeting space, materials and other arrangements based on the number of people registered. Many of these commitments cannot be cancelled once they are made, and the refund deadline allows us to plan responsibly and keep registration rates as low as possible.

     Exceptional circumstances
     We know some situations are beyond anyone's control. With supporting documentation, we offer the following at any time before the event:

     • Bereavement, military deployment, or first responders called to duty: a full refund with no processing fee, in the event of a death of the registrant or an immediate family member, military deployment, or being called to duty as a first responder.
     • Serious illness, family emergency, or travel disruption within 60 days of the event: a credit for the full amount paid, toward a future HMP Global event within 12 months.
     • Visa denial within 60 days of the event: a refund of 50% of your registration fee or a credit for the full amount paid, toward a future HMP Global event within 12 months with a copy of the official denial notice.

     Our Customer Experience team reviews these requests every week and will follow up with you directly.

     International attendees

     Visa invitation letters are issued once registration is paid in full. One-day and partial passes are not eligible for visa letters.

     • If the program changes
     • If an event is suspended or shortened due to circumstances beyond our control, such as a public health event, severe weather, or power or internet outages, we may offer a credit toward a future HMP Global event.
