Innovating Meeting Spaces

The way we meet is changing fast as a result of the hybrid work and we've now gone beyond simple conversations to include more collaboration, interactivity, and engagement technologies. Yet it remains difficult to replicate the advantages of in-person brainstorming, ideation, mentorship, and wellness. When only one quarter of companies have established hybrid meeting etiquette1, the race is on to retool meeting rooms to meet the demands of the hybrid workplace.

Trends

The meeting space landscape is changing and seeing various new trends including a desire for unified communication and collaboration tools (UC&C), driven by the growing popularity of BYOD meetings; meeting access equity that ensure both in-person and remote participants are equally included; room booking systems to optimize use of meeting spaces; and collaborative meeting tools becoming the backbone that supports the hybrid workplace. 

Challenges

Hybrid meeting space solutions must allow employees to work together better regardless of their location. A proactive approach from solution implementers is required to meet the pain points posed in terms of technology. Here are some of the key challenges:

  • Seamless Device Integration: Diverse communication tools, third-party AV equipment, and control systems must be integrated into unified solutions that work together smoothly 
  • Empower Participation: Remote employees must be able to actively participate in discussions happening in-room so that all meeting attendees feel equally included
  • Connected Communication: Meeting spaces must be fully functional for wired and wireless content sharing and provide various input interfaces for BYOD devices
  • Full Visual Immersion: Meetings require increasing amounts of video content, so solutions must incorporate more displays and also increase the ways in which displays can be utilized
  • Interactive Collaboration: As livestreaming and conferencing become essential meeting elements, video signal transmissions need to be bidirectional for fully interactive collaboration
