Frost & Sullivan to Host Quarterly Analyst Briefing on European Web Conferencing Services Market on Thursday, 26 June 2008 at 15.00 BST

LONDON -- Frost & Sullivan will host a free telephone and web briefing on Thursday, 26 June 2008 at 15.00 BST to provide industry participants with an overview of the Strategic Analysis of European Web Conferencing Services Markets.

Organisations are increasingly realising the importance of conferencing and collaboration as a key tool to improve business productivity and performance. Web conferencing, a critical part of real time collaboration, is moving away from being a stand alone solution to being increasingly integrated with other conferencing services, IM's, emails and other applications - to become a part of a comprehensive collaboration suite.

The briefing is based upon Strategic Analysis of European Web Conferencing Services Markets. The briefing will provide an overview of the current market condition in the European region and discuss prevailing technology trends in the web conferencing services market. The briefing will also cover various market forces such as drivers, restraints and challenges as well as key market measurements such as market sizing.

This briefing will be beneficial to conferencing services providers, web conferencing vendors, telecom service providers, unified communications vendors, conferencing equipment manufactures and conferencing companies by discussing emerging trends and providing forward projections for the European web conferencing services market.

"Web conferencing is a particularly appealing service for organisations in Europe thanks to its dual purpose of helping enterprises to fulfill their environmental social responsibility and reduce travel cost drastically," explains Frost & Sullivan Industry Analyst Prarthana Somal. "The stricter environmental laws in Europe and also economic factors are propelling the market; however, the web conferencing vendors face a tough challenge of operating in this very competitive market with well established regional and global payers."

Frost & Sullivan will hold this conference call at 15.00 BST on Thursday 26 June 2008, which will provide industry participants with an outlook on European Web Conferencing Services Markets.
