Zoom

Zoom makes it easy to conduct a wide range of top-quality video conferences and webinars.

Activities

  • Conduct video conference/webinar

Level of difficulty

The Zoom video conferencing software allows you to conduct video conferences in which the conference partners can take part using a range of digital devices. For example, via a professional video conferencing system, a desktop or a mobile app. Participants can talk to each other via audio, video and chat, and have the opportunity to present content by sharing their screen. The connection is reliable even with a large number of participants.

ZHdK members have a Pro account, which allows them to use ZHdK video conferencing systems and take part in top-quality conferences without any time limit and for up to 300 people. Participants do not need to have a Zoom account. And the highlight: conferences can be streamed on YouTube and Facebook, and recorded.
