teleconferencing
Two-way electronic communications that take place between two or more groups, or three or more people who are all in separate locations are known more commonly as teleconferences. Over the course of the last 20 years, technological advancements have brought about a wave of changes in the business world, specifically having to do with better efficiency. Machines replaced human workers on factory lines because it cut costs and increased productivity. Cellular phones / satellite phones make people available almost anywhere in the world at any time. Teleconferencing accounts for another technological advancement that allows for a multiple person phone call to replace face-to-face meetings, letter exchanges, and/or multiple phone calls. It allows for increased efficiency and productivity in the business forum because it saves time & money, allowing dispersed members of an organization to hold meetings from any number of points around the world at the click of a button. Telecommunications links use both regular phone lines and satellite phone lines to connect users fro almost any point on earth.
Although the roots of teleconferencing can be traced back to the 1930's, it is only as of late that there has been a surge in the number of people who have discovered the full range of its application. As the teleconferencing technology continues to evolve and improve, so too does the level of participation. Teleconferencing is no longer simply reduced to audio transmissions, as new equipment and the introduction of digital devices allow users to continue with their face-to-face meetings, only they are from one PC to another.
The tele conferencing market is continuously and increasingly receiving new infusions of competition as it has now evolved into a multi-billion dollar business on the cutting edge of communication technologies.
