If the primary host has a connectivity problem or needs to step away, the Co-organiser can keep the session running without interruption. This role is especially valuable for webinars with large audiences where a host dropping out would be visible and disruptive.<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-section\">\n<h2>How Co-organiser Works in Zoho Meeting<\/h2>\n<p>A Co-organiser is assigned by the host either before the session starts (during setup) or during a live session. The Co-organiser receives the same join link as other participants but has expanded controls: they can mute or remove participants, start or stop recording, manage the Waiting Room, and run polls. In a webinar, the Co-organiser can also manage Q&#038;A responses. The primary host retains the ability to end the session for everyone; the Co-organiser cannot do this unilaterally in all scenarios.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-section\">\n<h2>When to Use Co-organiser<\/h2>\n<p>Assign a Co-organiser for any session with more than ten participants, external client attendance, or a duration longer than one hour. For webinars, having one person present and one person manage the chat, Q&#038;A, and polls prevents the presenter from being distracted. For internal meetings, a Co-organiser is useful when the host may join late due to an earlier commitment. Do not assign Co-organiser rights casually, as they can remove participants and stop recordings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-section\">\n<h2>Key Considerations for Co-organiser<\/h2>\n<p>The Co-organiser does not need to be a Zoho Meeting account holder; any participant in the session can be promoted to Co-organiser. However, assigning the role before the session (during webinar setup) typically requires specifying the person&#8217;s email address. If the host leaves the session without ending it, the Co-organiser can maintain continuity but may not have all host-level permissions depending on the session type. Verify the Co-organiser&#8217;s capabilities in a test session before a critical event.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-example-box\"><strong>India Example:<\/strong> A Pune-based Zoho partner runs a product demo webinar. The account manager presents while a technical consultant acts as Co-organiser, monitoring the Q&#038;A panel, approving poll launches, and muting any participants accidentally left unmuted. When the account manager&#8217;s internet drops for two minutes, the Co-organiser holds the session open and addresses questions until the host returns.<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-related-pills\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/webinar-zoho-meeting\/\" class=\"gt-related-pill sp-content-link\">Webinar (Meeting)<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/polls-and-qa-zoho-meeting\/\" class=\"gt-related-pill sp-content-link\">Polls and Q&#038;A (Meeting)<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/meeting-session-zoho-meeting\/\" class=\"gt-related-pill sp-content-link\">Meeting Session<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-faq-item\"><strong>Can a Co-organiser in Zoho Meeting end the session for all participants?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The ability of a Co-organiser to end a session for all participants may vary by session type and Zoho Meeting version.
