Acer usually shares big announcements at two major events each year, its Global Press Conference in New York in spring and IFA each summer in Berlin. With IFA canceled, Acer's own Global Press Conference gets a bigger spotlight for what's next from the company. The event has the tagline "New Perspectives" this year and is an all-digital event.

The event will be streamed live on several sites, including YouTube, Facebook, and Acer's own site for the event. We've also embedded the YouTube stream below. You can set a reminder on YouTube to make sure that you don't miss the event.

Details are scarce regarding what Acer will announce at the event. We know that Acer CEO, Jason Chen, will announce what's on the way during the live stream. With the tagline of "New Perspectives" and "next@acer" appearing across the banner page for the livestream, it's safe to say that Acer plans to unveil some major pieces of tech.
