Online meeting

Post by carl2 »

Hi

In an online meeting, also known as virtual or web meeting, traditional face-to-face communication is replaced by remote communication via electronic channels, mainly internet.

The first important advantage of online meetings is cutting travel costs. This is especially true for virtual teams in which people are spread over multiple geographic locations worldwide.

Besides saving money on travel, an internet meeting is also a good practical solution for many business situations when a meeting is needed but people cannot be put in the same room at the same time. In particular, when the discussion needs to involve an expert or some other important person who does not have time to travel to the meeting location.

Thanks
