Steve Virgin has been doing a lot of work in this area and should be
involved. Though my "file" for the chapter is mainly GLAM, I do
(apparently) cover governance and I am personally very interested in
ensuring that the outreach initiative that Jimbo started has a
positive practical outcome. If we can establish good working practices
with the PR sector, this will make other commercial sectors seem a
doddle. ;-)
May is full of AGM - so give those dates a wide berth!
As for venue, I'm sure our PR friends will be able to fund or provide
a venue; I suggest we are open to venues outside of London and this
could be a chance to show off our progress in Wales (or alternatively
Bristol) and discuss that as a good news partnership case study. Steve
has been working on some plans with that in mind, which I am sure he
will be happy to share with you on request, though they may not be
available for open publication yet.
PS costs of travel or venue are not an issue for this one; doing it
well, sustainably and being seen to do the right thing are a
challenge.
Cheers,
Fae
