At a reception Tuesday afternoon at The Business Center at South Main Square, some of the guests weren?t actually in physical attendance. They were in Charlotte and Mooresville ? beamed in thanks to the wonders of electronic communication.? The event marked the debut of a state-of-the-art videoconferencing service, available to local businesses and organizations for meetings, job interviews and other long-distance events.
The office center has teamed up with MI-Connection Communications System to offer the service, which is being described as the only one of its kind in the Lake Norman area, able to connect three locations by video link simultaneously.
Videoconferencing is the latest in a series of business services offered at South Main Square, which has refashioned itself over the past few years from a traditional office building into a business incubator and membership office center. Members can use office or meeting space by the hour or day and take advantage of a menu of ?concierge? services, from the new videoconferencing system to marketing and design help to printing services and shipping.
The new videoconferencing service is available during business hours, evenings and weekends at hourly rates ranging from $200 to $350, depending on the time.
?Research shows that more businesses than ever are working from satellite locations and that many key personnel are telecommuting,??Kathleen Rose, manager of the Business Center @ South Main Square, said in a press release. ?The purpose of The Business Center is to provide needed resources for the business community in the Lake Norman area and our new video conferencing facility is really helping us meet that objective.?
The Business Center at South Main Square is at 442 St. Main St., Davidson. More info: www.southmainsquare.com.
