Video Conferencing is a highly effective medium for announcements, training, meetings, project
management, and even recruitment; yet, takes a fraction of the time and expense involved in sending
the participants to a single meeting location. It has all the impact and personal contact of a face-to-
face meeting, so you can liberate the creative and strategic power that exists throughout your
organization.
At St. Andrew's we can produce your video conference from any of our 18 meeting rooms, wired to
our 200 Mbps fiber optic internet connection switch, providing both clear picture and quality sound
reproduction. As we are using the internet (IP videoconferencing) you will no be charged "by the
minute" long distance ISDN charges.
 
St. Andrew's can look after you completely whenever the need for a video conference arises, either as
a separate event or in conjunction with a meeting or presentation.
