Can a guest to a team host a meeting?
Britt1972 Hello, I'm trying to understand your scenario but find it quite difficult.. Are you saying you're using the tenant switch during the meetings? That will end the meeting and you'll get a notification about it too. Correct?
When you're organizing a meeting and need to jump around in different org./teams for whatever reason, try starting the meeting in the Teams desktop client and then use https://teams.microsoft.com on the side. The meeting stays active and you can switch between all the org./teams using the browser.
This doesn't answer my question. I'll try to refrase it:
Sometimes when I host a meeting, I may need access to documents stored in Team belonging to another organization, a Team in which I myself am only a guest. But as long as I am hosting a meeting that I myself have initiated, I can't access such documents without leaving the meeting.
This problem does not occur when I join a meeting as a participant, only when I am the host.
For those of us who collaborate extensively and on equal terms with partners outside our own organizations, this is a frequent challenge. ChristianBergstrom

This seems to work. Thank you! ChristianBergstrom
Britt1972 did you find out the answer to your question about a guest in a team being able to host a meeting? My organization also hosts collaborations with equal ownership of documents and we work with contractors who would like to use Teams in the course of their work with us. Thanks.
