GetThere helps businesses stay home with conference call solution

tataGetThere will team with Tata Communications to offer GetThere’s corporate clients a video and conference-call solution so they can conduct virtual meetings without hopping a plane.

It’s all good for the environment and a smart move as GetThere is offering corporations access to Tata Communications’  public and private Telepresence rooms — replete with high-definition video and audio hook-ups — as a way to enhance efficiency and lower the boom on large corporate carbon footprints.

Still, it’s a bit of an ironic twist for a travel company, Sabre’s GetThere, to be discouraging, well, travel.

Tata’s telepresence tag line is: “Better than being there.”

Tata Communications and GetThere shortly will begin pilot tests of the program, and plan on a broader rollout later this year.
