Holding your shareholder meeting virtually or incorporating a virtual component enables increased shareholder access and participation. It also gives you a new opportunity to make an impression on your investors and think bigger and bolder when it comes to your broader stakeholder engagement and governance strategies.

Computershare virtual and hybrid shareholder meeting solutions offer robust, secure options for issuer companies that comply with all Swiss and European regulatory requirements and meet market and investor expectations.

Video options to meet your needs

Doing business over video has become common recently, making video the new norm. Your shareholders may now expect you to use video at your general meeting so they can see and hear your speakers. With Computershare, you select the video option that best suits your needs:

  • training-presentation-icon-gradient (CPU 2025)

    Remote video

    Speakers can present remotely using their webcam on any device from anywhere in the world

  • official icon

    Video on-location

    Speakers can present from a designated location, such as your boardroom, or executive conference room

Secure, accurate voting

Eligible shareholders in attendance will be able to vote their shares as soon as they authenticate into your meeting. Voting in the platform is quick, easy and flexible. While polls are open, shareholders may change their votes. Shareholders can also vote multiple entitlements without logging out. Computershare maintains the integrity of votes cast.

Interactive Q&A that puts you in control and creates positive shareholder experiences

You will have a dashboard that allows smooth control and management of interactive Q&A. Questions are tracked to the individual user and can only be seen by the meeting organizers, so you remain in control. Shareholders can easily type questions in the platform, creating positive experiences. Questions can be submitted before or during your meeting.

For our recent AGM, we decided to hold the meeting on a hybrid basis, to enable our shareholders to participate in the meeting on remotely. The Computershare team were first class in terms of helping us to understand the Computershare’s Virtual Meeting Solution in advance of the AGM, such that the meeting proceeded extremely smoothly on the day. I would recommend any listed company needing to hold a meeting on a hybrid basis to speak to Computershare about using their platform.

Andrew Watkins, Group General Counsel & Company Secretary, SIG PLC

Due to the pandemic, we explored different ways to interact with our shareholders at our AGM and Computershare’s Virtual Meeting Solution was an excellent solution. The system offered the ability to seamlessly integrate with our share register, which meant admission to the meeting for validated shareholders was easy and uncomplicated. Computershare’s technical support were always on hand and provided a first-class service to resolve any questions or uncertainties we had in the run up to the event.
