LCCI Business Development & Support Webinars
Overview
London Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) Business Development and Support Webinars are a series of 45-minute online sessions covering a variety of topics. Webinars are delivered by LCCI members.
The primary objective of running a webinar with LCCI is to provide business development advice, support, and inspiration in the modern world of business today. Topics can include but are not limited to: Marketing, AI, Tech, Cyber, Crime, Sustainability, Transport, Infrastructure, Property & Construction, Social Media Management, Customer Service, Skills & Training, Leadership, Procurement, HR, Health & Wellbeing, Finance and Legal.

Whilst LCCI’s webinar programme is a great way to raise your businesses profile, presentations must not form a sales pitch. The webinars are an opportunity for knowledge sharing.
LCCI members are invited to submit a webinar proposal form below. The proposal will be reviewed by the LCCI Events Team who will then follow up with you on the next steps.
Key Points:
- Lead times are usually 3-4 months.
- Hosted on GoToWebinar - Speaker(s) will need access to a PC / Mac with a microphone (preferably headphones) and a webcam.
- Chaired by an LCCI representative.
- 45-minutes long. LCCI will block out 1-hour to have a brief pre-meet on the platform.
- LCCI webinars have an average of 50-60% non-attendance rate.
- Recorded and made available on the LCCI website post event.
- LCCI does not pay speaker fees.
- If we do not reach a reasonable number of registrations, we may have to cancel or reschedule.
- Unfortunately, LCCI cannot always proceed with webinar submissions. This can be due to saturation of a topic area or experience that a certain topic will not be of significant interest to generate the required level of registrations.

Promotion
Webinars will be promoted via LCCI's Events Calendar on our website, the LCCI App, and will be included in LCCI events e-Newsletter and the Quarterly Virtual Events e-Newsletter (subject to availability and deadlines). Speakers are encouraged to promote their webinar to their contacts via their own platforms.
Rehearsal / Tech Check
LCCI will host an IT check (10-15-minutes) a few days before the webinar to eliminate any tech issues, check the speaker(s) know the running order and how to use the platform.
Collection of Data and Sharing Data
Before the webinar LCCI will share the company names, and industry sectors of those registered. The webinar registration page will have an option for attendees to opt-in to sharing their name and email address with speaker(s). After the webinar has taken place, we will share the data of opted-in attendees with you.
