With the economy still sputtering, virtual meetings have become an increasingly big business. From large companies seeking to limit travel costs to hotels seeing to boost revenues, live, 2-way broadcasts from multiple locations are fast growing beyond the “novelty” stage. Now add another twist to the story with world-class broadcast satellite providing full virtual meeting capabilities from a restaurant chain.
A collaboration between The Capital Grille restaurant chain and ConneXion360 has launched virtual meeting capabilities connecting private dining rooms in all 40 Capital Grille locations. Said Capital Grille president John Martin, "With satellite broadcasting technology in all of our restaurants, we invite our guests to hold meetings or presentations in multiple cities at once, while enjoying our exceptional service, award-winning food and wine, and the comfortable surroundings of our private dining rooms."
No word on what the meetings might cost but, hey, it’s got to beat a bunch of plane and hotel expenses.
