## Notice

Recent global events in the form of the Covid-19 pandemic have accelerated work to provide online open days, student recruitment events, careers fairs and conferences, and to create a system that can function 100% online. Whilst there are already a number of platforms that can contribute to these events in-house, there is nothing that ties them together to provide a consistent and appropriate experience. It was decided that investment in a platform is needed to deliver a consistent online experience for digital events.
