Exercise One (1999.5)
TRANSATLANTIC VIDEO LINK
0 Information technology and modern telecommunications really do bridge of the
00 distance between centers of commerce and the British countryside, according
41 to inventors Phil and Pam Richardson. They faced with a 5,000 mile round trip
42 from their home in Wales to America for to seal a contract with the US Surgical
43 Corporation, being one of the country’s top medical appliance companies.
44 The logistics of the trip were very much difficult. They needed to talk to several
45 top executives with an impossibly busy schedules, who were based in three
46 different cities. Then they heard about a new state-of-the-art Telematic Center,
47 just 10 miles from their home. So instead of crossing to the Atlantic Ocean, they
48 traveled just 20 miles and spent a modest sum on an hour-long transatlantic
49 video conference. It saved days of traveling and enormous expense. The end
50 result was also more better as they were able to get all of the executives
together in their lunch hours to sort out the problem.
