In today's hybrid working environment, where 98% of meetings involve a remote participant, meeting equity is a challenge that most businesses face. And no, solving meeting equity doesn't only mean having video-enabled conference rooms. It means creating that meeting experience where everyone has equal opportunities to communicate, share ideas, and stay engaged during online collaborative sessions.
So, how can businesses create that experience? Implementing devices that are seamless, easy to deploy, use, and manage, compatible with major video conferencing software, and flexible to fit different room shapes and sizes are some of the keys.
To foster seamless online interactions, businesses need the flexibility to transform their offices into human collaboration hubs and high-impact spaces that support various meeting formats at any time. They also need to ensure that the video conferencing devices are reliable and easy to use so that meetings can start and people can collaborate as soon as they walk into a room without wasting precious time figuring out how to use devices.
