Great Wi-Fi Expectations: Can You Support Paperless Meetings?

“Any meeting, regardless of size, must have the bandwidth to go paperless.”

It’s not just about being green, it’s about saving green. Hotels Magazine’s article, B.Y.O.B. (Bring your own bandwidth), cites a conversation with a conference and event management professional whose company recently decided to go completely digital. After they uncovered the high-cost of printed meeting materials, not to mention security concerns as a financial advisory company, the move was made to go paperless for any and all meetings. Not surprisingly, many companies are following suit

Meeting planners now demand an efficient and cost-effective way to support their conference bandwidth needs. In order to meet those demands, it is important to understand how much bandwidth the typical conference in your hotel demands, and to help the planner understand exactly how much they are asking for. To put everyone on the same page and leave no one disappointed, companies such as PSAV have a calculator that can help planners know just how much they need.
