Town Hall Event Meetings Technology by IML Event Technology

Give every participant a chance to have their say, providing valuable insight into the thoughts and feelings of an entire audience.

Town meetings represent the voice of local people expressing their concerns over local events. It is important that everyone has the opportunity to put their point across. This is where IML’s interactive meeting technology can help. We have developed a conference system that is ideally suited to use during town hall meetings, allowing each individual participant to be truly integrated into the discussion whilst still maintaining control over the proceedings. Views can be expressed anonymously, via text or using the inbuilt microphones, so everyone can feel as if they are a fundamental part of the event. So how does our technology work?
