The LowCVP's new webinar technology allows up to 1000 people to take part in on-line conferences where they are able to see and hear presentations, take part in instant opinion surveys and engage in debate and questions. The next webinar (Mon 9 November) is on the Green Bus Fund and will be followed by an event focusing on consumer information, including labelling and advertising.
