to offer is the ability to meet with people in remote locations
without incurring travel expenses or other expenses associated
with face to face communication. Business meetings, educational
meetings, healthcare conferences and more can all be easily
conducted thanks to video conferencing technology. Individuals
living in remote areas can also use video conferencing to keep
in touch if you will, with the world at large.
More people are easily accessed and contacted using video
conferencing. Because of this technology information and
knowledge are often disseminated at more rapid rates, and
collaboration between people occurs more willingly and freely.
Students can take advantage of video conferencing to take
classes at distant locations that would normally be unavailable.
They can also take classes that will accommodate busy schedules.
Video conferencing can stimulate better brainstorming, knowledge
sharing and information gathering. Businesses can use video
conferencing to provide presentations to key members of an
organization or to solicit new clients in a professional manner,
regardless of their location. The possibilities for
communication are virtually endless thanks to video conferencing
technologies.
