I’ve just come across this whitepaper by BrightCom on travel costs vs videoconferencing.

Their description:

In economic hard times, business tend to reevaluate operational budgets to determine the most valuable and cost effective ways to succeed in their industry. One way in which businesses, small and large can cut costs and find value is by reducing business travel budgets and turning to alternatives such as telecommunication systems. This paper presents a study comparing the cost advantages of video conferencing and telepresence implementations over business travel within a five year period.

I assume they’ve done their research and used realistic figures for their comparison. You can make up your own mind. Download it (pdf). Read more whitepapers by BrightCom here.
