Buyer guides & procurement

AGMs and shareholder-style programmes—hybrid controls that stand up to scrutiny

Governance programmes are not marketing livestreams. They need moderated Q&A paths, clear rules for what appears on record, and documentation suitable for minutes—not only “good video.” Buyers should scope **controls**, **archive policy**, and **failure behaviour** alongside encoder specs.

Define public versus restricted audiences

Authentication, VPN, or invite-only links change platform options and rehearsal needs.

Moderation and queue discipline

Remote questions need a visible workflow: who approves, how duplicates are handled, and what happens to off-topic submissions.

Archive and minutes alignment

Determine whether video is the system of record or supplementary to formal minutes—edit packages differ.

Practice degraded modes

Shareholders should know what happens if uplink fails—audio-only continuation, scheduled replay, or adjournment messaging agreed with legal.

Documentation beyond the stream

ISO recordings, timestamps, and file naming may matter for regulators or listing rules—scope explicitly.

Photography

FAQ

Should the stream be public or authenticated?
That is a governance decision. Technical scope depends on platform auth, geo rules, and whether replays are allowed—decide before encoder configuration.
