To create a Project, use the nav panel, select Projects >> Projects List. Once on the main Projects page, click the + New Project button at the top. That will open the “New Project” modal window for you to enter some basic information about this new Project.
Alternatively, projects can be created from within Meetings from the Projects section of the meeting agenda by clicking New Project. Both methods will produce the Project creation modal.
