Hello

No other real context as it is alone in a Powerpoint cell

I'd like to know how Swedes see this word.

Is it

Meetings of the Communication Group

Thanks

Communication department/committee/group


Explanation:
This link gives you more of an idea. http://www.regeringen.se/sb/d/3484/a/207986
The term, imho, refers to the 'group' or committee in charge of external (and possibly internal) communications in an organisation. In the reference this seems to be an informal designation.

But your term refers to the meetings of this group as opposed to your other suggestion.
