Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway is going digital with its main event.

The conglomerate plans to webcast its annual shareholder meeting for the first time this year, effectively giving the April event a broader reach. Last year, tens of thousands of people went to Omaha, Nebraska, for the event, where Buffett and Berkshire's Vice Chairman Charlie Munger give an outlook on investing and the economy.

Berkshire has typically banned attendees from filming, leaving many relying on media accounts of what Buffett said, according to Dow Jones, which first reported the news. This year, the webcast will likely cover the question-and-answer session, which can last hours.
