Emma is joined by Ben Thomas, Director of Mi-Voice \u2013 Democracy Technology Ltd, who will host a discussion on the use of technology in enhancing membership engagement during democratic events conducted by co-ops. The session will explore the role of technology in improving processes such as voting in elections, annual member meetings and AGMs. It will also examine how adopting an &#8216;outcome-based&#8217; approach to elections, supported by technology, can lead to increased engagement and a broader pool of candidates, while ensuring inclusivity.<\/p>\n<p>We will also be exhibiting throughout the day so come and see us!
