Smart Commute Week Daily Webcast Highlights

Smart Commute Week Daily Webcasts...sponsored by: Ozone Conferencing
Reduce Business Travel Costs with Audio, Web or Video Conferencing
According to Smart Commute Week sponsors Ozone Conferencing, a one hour off-site meeting attended by six staff in real terms will cost £1645. A half-hour webcast on the other hand is likely to cost closer to £35, yes that's right, just £35!.
Given that a typical busy professional executive can attend more than fifty meetings a month, taking up the Smart Commute Week 'one in five' challenge can save a business an awful lot of time and cost, not to mention CO2.
If you weren't able to join the Smart Commute Week webcasts live, here is an opportunity to experience the webconferencing medium for yourself. You can also take advantage of the other main advantage of conferencing in that renowned speakers like those listed below and subject matter experts can be accessed whenever and wherever appropriate.
