For years, meeting room technology was evaluated primarily on ease of use and audiovisual quality. If people could walk in, plug in, and start presenting, the job was considered done. That mindset no longer holds. Today’s meeting rooms are deeply connected to digital environments, and security has become a business-critical concern rather than a technical…
Sustainability strategies often start with ambition. Net‑zero targets, ESG frameworks, and environmental KPIs signal intent at leadership level. Yet whether those ambitions translate into real progress depends largely on what happens much closer to day‑to‑day operations. In practice, sustainability is shaped by the everyday technology decisions IT teams make. According to a Barco ClickShare survey, 96% of IT leaders believe…
The way organizations support collaboration today still varies widely from space to space. Small huddle rooms, project spaces, and large boardrooms often come with different setups, different workflows, and different expectations. For employees, that inconsistency creates friction. For IT teams, it creates complexity. And for organizations, it quietly undermines the promise of hybrid work. What’s becoming…
For years, innovation in workplace collaboration followed a familiar pattern. Better cameras promised clearer video. Smarter microphones claimed to eliminate background noise. Software updates added more features, more buttons, and more possibilities. Progress was tangible, measurable, and largely device‑centric. As organizations move deeper into hybrid work, that model is starting to show its limits. The most meaningful change…
Hybrid work has settled into everyday reality, but the technology that supports it is still catching up. As collaboration becomes more distributed, organizations are reassessing how meeting spaces, digital tools, and infrastructure actually support the way people work. What’s emerging is a shift from fragmented solutions toward more intentional, integrated collaboration environments that are designed to perform, scale, and adapt…
A few years back, Bhaskar Ramachandran read the tea leaves and what he saw was clear: With all the enhancements hyperscalers continuous make, there was no value in having on-premises data centers any longer. “There is just no way for a private company to match that,” says Ramachandran, global vice president and CIO of paints…
The modern CIO has perhaps the hardest iteration of the job: transforming enterprises that run on SAP, ServiceNow and even fax machines into “AI-native,” “AI-first” organizations. From choosing between hundreds of platform options, to receiving yearlong timelines to spin up a few chatbots, to employees who just keep feeding their team’s internal data to ChatGPT,…
Sometime between the dotcom melt down in the late 1990s and the May 2003 publishing of “IT Doesn’t Mater” in Harvard Business Review, the acronym CIO was snarkily reinterpreted by tech-skeptics as meaning “Career Is Over.” With the rapidly expanding capability of AI, there are some wondering whether the entire IT career category is doomed…
Identity has always been central to security, but the proliferation of AI agents is rapidly changing the challenge of managing and securing identity, spurring CISOs to rethink their identity strategies — even how it is defined. “Identity is now both a control surface and an attack surface. We’ve had non-human identities as API keys, tokens,…
Somewhere right now, a CIO is sitting in a Board meeting trying to explain why the six AI tools the company has deployed in the last two years haven’t produced the ROI the board was promised. There’s an LLM in marketing. A summarizer in legal. Some bots in sales and customer service. The tools are…
