(8) What is a brown-bag session? - Quora
A brown-bag session refers to an informal meeting, training, or presentation that happens in the workplace.Brown-bag, to me, indicates three elements:
#1, because the term brown-bag refers to the plain brown paper sack in which many people bring their lunch to work, it typically happens over lunchtime;
#2, for the same reason, attendees are aware that this is not a formal meeting where lunch is provided to them;
#3, since it takes place over lunch hour, it is optional for participants to attend because it is assumed they have an hour of unpaid time for lunch and they have chosen to use it to attend the session.
The presenter(s) at a brown-bag session should be aware that the participants will be eating their lunches, and that contributes to the informal nature. Topics are typically "nice to know" but not "need to know" due to the optional nature of the session.
