Answer: When giving a slide show presentation we usually use a projector and a projection screen to show it.

Sometimes, Greg will need to "point" to some graph, image, equation, or something like that in order to drag the audience's attention in such a part.

If Greg went in front of the screen to signalize the part he wants, he will project a shadow on the screen, and this may be troublesome for some of the audience.

A laser comes handy here because Greg does not even need to move to point the laser in the part of the screen he wants, and it does not project a shadow or anything in the screen (The laser emits a "column" of coherent photons, that don't interact with the light of the projector), so it's very useful to signalize points as he speaks, which also allows him to not lose the flow of the presentation.

Explanation :

The full form of laser is Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. It has particles of very high energy. It points in one direction.

Greg is giving a slide show presentation to a large audience. It is very important to make the presentation informative. By using a laser, we can focus on the important part of the presentation. So that we can highlight the important points.
