The Global Gen World

Conferencing is said to be the joining together of more than two telephone users in a single call. Once a call is established between two persons, one holds the conversation to call a third party and joins the three parties in one call at a press of a button. Its most prevalent application is in the business forum. The ability to have multiple parties meet while located in different parts of the world is highly desired due to the demands of the times.

Conferencing has evolved from simple teleconferencing to the more popular video conferencing where parties are able to engage in face-to-face conversations while talking with multiple parties. Video conferencing technology has capitalized largely on the powerful capabilities of computers and telecommunications networks.
