Zoom is rolling out a bunch of new fun features to increase engagement among meeting attendees as hybrid work in companies grows beyond the earlier work-from-home rule. The video calling platform has introduced Collaborate Mode and Breakout Rooms to improve collaboration and creativity in meetings. While Collaborate Mode will allow hosts to start a creative experience for participants, breakout Rooms will give attendees closed-off discussion spaces where people can have a more focused conversation. Check out the list of features rolled out by the Zoom app.
