With the development of wireless computer network technology and group decision-making software, a new style of town meeting can be convened. For example, AmericaSpeaks, a U.S.-based non-profit organization, has worked with municipal governments and other agencies to develop and manage large-scale town meetings and citizen engagement events, in some cases with thousands of on-site participants. Every participant is part of a table discussion group.

Avec le développement de la technologie des réseaux informatiques sans fil et des logiciels de décision de groupe, on peut convoquer une assemblée publique locale d'un style différent. Par exemple, AmericaSpeaks, une organisation sans but lucratif des États-Unis, a travaillé avec des administrations municipales et d'autres organismes pour élaborer et gérer des assemblées publiques de grande ampleur et des événements de participation des citoyens, comptant dans certains cas des milliers de participants sur place.
