Natalie Dreier,

Natalie Dreier is a journalist who has written about technology and business. She has covered topics such as Microsoft Mesh, which she described as a system that allows for 3D immersive experiences using next-generation technology. Some companies are already using the technology for brainstorming and team social events or roundtable discussions. The author implies that this is the only use for the technology, but it can also be used for training, education, and gaming. She uses sensationalism in her title by stating that Teams meetings may not happen on camera but instead be held in a virtual world which is misleading as there’s no indication of this happening unless explicitly stated.
