Annual Meetings with out Travel?

David Gammel from Acronym has an interesting take on the latest terrorist plot against the airlines and what it will do the annual meeting as we know it.  Could heavy restrictions on laptops and carry-ons lead to the demise of large numbers of attendees traveling to annual meetings nationally and internationally?  Gammel suggests new ways to deliver content locally that are interesting and could work in multiple situations.  We have had many clients take advantage our of satellite broadcast technology to deliver interactive content from one central point to local audiences nationwide.  By utilizing sales representatives or local subject matter experts it has become an extremely efficient way to communicate with large audiences - without air travel.  Will business travel end, no, but we should all start investigating new technology and communication strategies in times when event travel becomes an issue.

If you do have to travel by air to your meetings, it's a good idea to check the TSA website for the latest updates and news:
