**DAFF FALL 2014: POSTPONED INDEFINITELY**

It is with extreme sadness that TICT Creative has been forced to postpone DAFF Fall 2014 indefinitely due to reasons beyond our control.

Every possible measure was taken to preserve the long-standing event, but the team have had to make this difficult decision in an effort to reduce any disruptions.

The heart, soul, and mission of DAFF and TICT Creative has always been to gather people of all backgrounds, support culture, and to inspire. We truly appreciate each individual who has joined the DAFF community, those with whom we've had the pleasure of meeting and collaborating with along the way and those that have attended one of the six events hosted since 2011, and we look forward to continuing to create a positive contribution to the city's landscape, to celebrate culture and innovation in China for years to come.

We would like to thank all of our sponsors, exhibitors, partners, media, artists, musicians, volunteers, guests and everyone else who has helped this event reach the level that it has, for your unwavering support.

Thanks,

TICT CREATIVE
