2. Purpose We are piloting virtual meetings to mitigate the time to conventional meetings. – We will enjoy greater flexibility with a virtual venue. – We can bring distinguished speakers at no cost. We can gain expertise in the virtual technology that is an evolving business area for areas like immersive training, simulations and visualization.
