teleconference
Distance group call
A teleconference is a meeting conducted remotely, with participants connected by phone or video rather than gathered in one place.
The term covers conference calls and video meetings alike.
To teleconference is to participate in such a meeting: We teleconferenced with the Tokyo office this morning.
