SharePoint Quick Tip
Why Create a SharePoint Meeting Workspace?
If your meeting materials - such as agendas, related documents, objectives, and tasks - are often scattered, a Meeting Workspace site can help you keep them all in one place. 
 
Some ways you can use a Meeting Workspace site:

Before the meeting, publish the agenda, attendee list, and documents that you plan to discuss.

After the meeting, publish the minutes, add other follow-up information, and track the status of the tasks.
