Speaking of Debra…
“On December 14th, 2007, Debra Dinnocenzo held an excellent ‘live’ videoconference for a Dutch audience of 100 participants in The Hague, Netherlands. The audience was impressed by the content of her presentation and the discussion that followed. This videoconference really demonstrated how virtual working operates in reality, and how the long distance between the USA and Europe can easily be bridged by modern technology, saving time and costs for all involved. This is really something to repeat in the future.”
