Albion Development AGM

[IJ49]

Yesterday (9th June) was the AGM of Albion Development (AADV) and it was streamed live as a webinar via Zoom. I had signed up for access, but other matters intervened. Albion have also posted pdfs of the Q&As received from shareholders and the proxy voting results, with the results presentation to follow.

Very useful way for shareholders to have access to the curtailed agm in line with the guidelines. Shame about missing out on the usual refreshments and chats afterwards though, hopefully next time.

I see also that the Kings Arms Yard agm is next week (15th) and this too is being live streamed as a webinar.

Regarding AGMs rather than VCTs, I note that Saga are hosting their online AGM using lumiagm.com which apparently allows shareholders to ask questions and vote 'live' at the virtual AGM.

However, still no refreshments or chat!

Even before lockdown, we should long ago have made the facility for online attendance a requirement for shareholder meetings of all listed companies. With a bit of luck, this can now finally become the norm!

Kudos to Albion for at least meeting the challenges of communicating in a Covid world head on and doing the live streaming and available downloads. Hopefully this will become the standard

A very positive departure compared to the Attitude of most of the others VCT fund boards who have refused to do similar or used the excuses of not allowed to hold clandestine meetings without any nasty shareholders to ask any questions about our money

Well done Albion

Thanks for posting that.

A valiant effort, but not available to me as my N2 shares are held in a nominee account. If they require a shareholder ID for signup, there needs to be provision to obtain such an ID from a nominee - perhaps using an OpenID framework (the technology underlying when you get the option to "login with" the likes of a google or facebook account on a third-party site).
