ACTION:

 

A town hall meeting can accommodate 10,000 internal and external attendees and has many of the same capabilities as live event meetings. Town halls provide a one-to-many format with advanced production capabilities and a structured approach to attendee engagement.  Town hall will be the platform where new features are launched, and we encourage Teams Live Events users to begin using it.  View the resources below to learn more about the Town hall and its features:
