Description

In this episode, Tormod Ree, Chief Product and Engineering Officer at Neat, shares his view on where meeting room technology is heading and how Neat plans to differentiate while staying simple and reliable for customers.

  • AI across the experience: device-side media understanding, and platform features will move meetings from basic framing to experiences that adapt to the interaction in the room.
  • Hybrid work isn’t solved: organisations still struggle to give remote participants equal presence for video, audio and collaboration. 
  • Rooms must support more than a “video window” and enable local, collaborative and mixed scenarios.
  • Neat’s approach to scale: multi‑device architecture for larger and more complex spaces, companion devices like Neat Center, and an App Hub to use devices for more than meetings.
  • Platform alignment without losing identity and partnership on Microsoft’s Devices Ecosystem Platform to improve quality, provisioning and integrations, while retaining Neat’s own innovations and simplicity focus.

Thanks to Neat, this episode’s sponsor, for their continued support of Empowering.Cloud.
