) Berlin (in-person) TechEd sessions on the homepage events band were mapped to region 'EMEA' / isVirtual:false, so they rendered in the in-person region lane. The band card is a catalog link into the TechEd session catalog, not attendance guidance — a Berlin session is still watchable online. Map every individual session to region 'VIRTUAL' / isVirtual:true / location 'Virtual' so they present as virtual and stay out of the physical region lanes.

Problem
Individual SAP TechEd 2026 sessions were showing up in the region-specific "In Person" section of the homepage events band, when they should be treated as virtual-only.
Root cause
_techedAlways()insrv/homepage-service.jsmapped aBERLINsession toregion: 'EMEA'/isVirtual: false, so an EMEA (in-person) viewer saw the session as an in-person EMEA card with a "Berlin" location.Fix
The band card is a catalog link into the TechEd session catalog, not attendance guidance — a Berlin session is still watchable online. Every individual session is now mapped to
region: 'VIRTUAL',isVirtual: true,location: 'Virtual', so it presents as virtual and stays out of the physical region lanes (shown under the "Virtual only" / "All" filters).Note: TechEd cards remain region-agnostic / always-merged on the band (like Devtoberfest) — the fix changes how they present, not whether they appear.
