Konecranes cancels its Annual General Meeting scheduled for March 26, 2020

Konecranes’ first priority is always the health and safety of people – its employees, customers and shareholders. Due to the Coronavirus situation and the announcement of measures by the Finnish Government on March 16 to counter the virus by limiting public gatherings in Finland to a maximum of ten persons, Konecranes’ Board of Directors has decided to cancel the Annual General Meeting scheduled for March 26, 2020.

Konecranes will convene the 2020 Annual General Meeting at a later stage.
