In this paper, the authors discuss fifteen semi-structured interviews carried out in 2010 with international industry experts and thought leaders within the conferencing and collaboration (C&C) field. The interviews focused on 5, 10, and 15-year time frames, and sought to elicit predictions on the components and services of future C&C platforms, as well as organisational issues such as the likely impacts on business value chains. The authors performed Affinity Diagramming \/ KJ Analysis in order to assess common themes and impose structure on the information gathered in the interviews. Themes included ease of use, improved presence\/social context, formalised social networking capabilities, virtual worlds, remote interactive tools, meta-knowledge \/ context capture, identity and trust, and key barriers to C&C uptake across organisations. Pre-conditions for maturation of the field include the emergence of interoperability and standards, and the development of corporate education policies.<\/p>","DOI":"10.4018\/jec.2012040104","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,3,29]],"date-time":"2012-03-29T13:35:01Z","timestamp":1333028101000},"page":"47-70","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Future Directions of the Conferencing and Collaboration Field"],"prefix":"10.4018","volume":"8","author":[{"given":"Alfie","family":"Keary","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Informa (Europe) Limited, Ireland"}]},{"given":"Sam","family":"Redfern","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National University of Ireland Galway, Ireland"}]}],"member":"2432","reference":[{"key":"jec.2012040104-0","unstructured":"Adobe.
