Video conferencing is a two-way communication delivered over the internet, where two or more people "meet" through a video and audio call in real-time without having to be in a single location together.
Video conferencing isn't exactly a brand-new technology, but recently it has skyrocketed in popularity throughout the global COVID-19 pandemic throughout 2020 and 2021, allowing individuals and businesses to hold online meetings, online education (for children still at school), interview job candidates, job training session, and so on.
Thanks to the advancements in technology, while video conferencing used to be fairly expensive and difficult to implement, now video conferencing is very reliable and affordable, and companies can quite easily implement video conferencing at a little to no cost.
The key to a video conferencing session is that the two or more participants should be able to see each other in real-time, which will typically require adequate internet bandwidth.
There are many different methods how free video conferencing can be conducted, but typically it involves three key elements:
Last but not least, high-speed, reliable internet access is necessary to facilitate communication.

There are two basic types of video conferencing:
Multi-point: a type of video conversation involving more than two participants in at least two different locations. Also called group video conferencing or group calls. A webinar session involving one keynote speaker and multiple attendees is an example of multi-point video conferencing.
As mentioned, there are various methods and techniques you can use to host or join a video conference; each may involve different types of equipment. However, you can host a basic free video conference with the following equipment:
Most modern laptops nowadays come with a built-in webcam, microphone, and speakers, and when connected to high-speed internet is already sufficient for basic conferencing.
Free video conferencing allows multiple participants to "meet" in real-time without requiring the participants to be in a single location, which ultimately saves travel time and money. Multiple participants can join an effective meeting while reducing people's downtime and improving productivity gains by reducing travel time, logistics, and flight preparations, among other inconveniences related to business travel.
