Azeus Convene

Convene is the world-renowned board portal and management software that makes board meeting processes more streamlined and sustainable. Convene helps board administrators and secretaries to prepare for meetings quickly with its easy to use meeting agenda builder and allows for immediate digital board pack distribution. Board directors can use Convene to hold secure virtual meetings through an app on their devices, where they can receive, review, and annotate board documents.

Compared to other board portals, Convene is more intuitive and user-friendly with users reporting to learn how to use the platform in less than 30 minutes. Convene itself emphasizes four essential aspects of board management: collaboration, governance, sustainability, and security.

Collaboration

Convene empowers board members to collaborate with each other through collaborative features such as live presentation tools, page synchronization, virtual laser pointer, internal messenger, integrated video conferencing, and sharing notes & annotations. Administrators can also set up a seamless workflow to quickly prepare for board meetings by assigning action tasks, managing a document repository, and setting permission-based settings.

Governance

Convene’s design allows for the practice of good corporate governance of the directors with a particular focus on compliance with company and legislative regulations. Convene promotes accountability, transparency, and security within the boardroom that ensure boards will be able to govern to the best of their abilities to oversee the company. Live voting, board evaluations, review rooms, a structured document approval workflow and many other governance features are available through the Convene board portal and management software.

Sustainability

Increase cost savings with the use of Convene by decreasing paper, printing, binding, and courier costs. Switch to paperless meetings and make your internal processes more sustainable by pursuing a green initiative. Becoming more cost-efficient in the boardroom is key towards becoming more eco-friendly and being at the forefront of the digital revolution taking place within organizations around the world.

Security

Convene is equipped with ISO recognized enterprise-grade security features and encryption that ensures the protection of confidential data and reports against potential data leaks and hacking attempts.
