1. A video conferencing system hosting a dynamically customized video conference, comprising:
an electronic processing device;
a non-transitory memory device in communication with the electronic processing device, the non-transitory memory device storing (i) video conference data, (ii) participant display device data, and (iii) processing instructions that, when executed by the electronic processing device, result in:
identifying, by the electronic processing device and based on the video conference data, a plurality of data feeds of a video conference;
identifying, by the electronic processing device and based on a first subset of the participant display device data corresponding to a first display device of a first participant in the video conference, a first arrangement of the plurality of data feeds of the video conference;
identifying, by the electronic processing device, a first data feed of the plurality of data feeds of the video conference that has the focus of the first participant;
reducing, by the electronic processing device, a data feed bandwidth of at least one second data feed of the plurality of data feeds of the video conference while maintaining a data feed bandwidth of the first data feed;
computing, by the electronic processing device and based on the video conference data, a statistical likelihood that a second participant will speak in the video conference; and
identifying, by the electronic processing device, that the statistical likelihood that the second participant will speak in the video conference is below a predetermined threshold.
