The Conference Cloud campaign launched recently by ABPCO, the Association of British Professional Conference Organisers, has secured more than 100 signatures on its petition and already gathered the support of fifteen venues.
The campaign, which calls for free Wi-Fi for conference delegates at venues across the UK, gathered momentum within hours of launching last month.
ABPCO Chair Michael Foreman said: “We are delighted with the response to the campaign and welcome on board all those who have signed up as venues or lent their support via the petition.”
ABPCO plans to host a round-table debate with venues towards the end of October, hosted by the first venue to sign up to the campaign, Twickenham Experience.
The full agenda for the debate will be released in the coming weeks.
The debate over free Wi-Fi has already gained momentum on social media, via ABPCO’s LinkedIn group and in particular via the Twitter hashtag #confcloud.
ABPCO invites both individuals and venues to sign up to the campaign via the website at http://www.theconferencecloud.co.uk/petition/
