Annual meeting refers to the shareholders' general meeting held yearly on the date or ing to the formula by which such a meeting date will be fixed, as prescribed in the corporation's bylaws. The purpose of the annual meeting is for shareholders to elect the directors.
The formalities for calling (or convening) shareholders' meetings are much stricter than those for board meetings. At least fourteen clear days' written notice must be given to all shareholders, directors and any auditor. This is regardless of whether resolutions are to be passed as ordinary or special resolutions.

A General Meeting is simply a meeting of shareholders and 21 days' notice must be given to shareholders, but this can be reduced to 14 days, or increased to 28 days, in certain situations.
Every shareholder is given the opportunity to vote and attend meetings, but it's not a requirement. Institutional investors or those with a large position in the company may attend and vote in person. Those who choose not to attend in person but still want to make their opinion known can vote by proxy.
Annual shareholder meetings require a notice period of at least 21 days. The notice period can be shortened with the expressed consent of all shareholders. The notice should include all the basic meeting details and other important pieces of documentation, such as the meeting agenda.
Federal Law: If the company is relying on the “notice and access” model of delivery, Exchange Act Rules 14a-16(a)(1) and (n)(3),17 C.F.R. §§ 240.14a-16(a)(1) and (n)(3), require notice of internet availability of proxy materials at least 40 days prior to the annual meeting.
If your business is set up and registered as a Corporation, you're required by law to hold an annual shareholder meeting and to document the meeting with minutes.
