We had a great experience at ISE 2024 in Barcelona earlier this month, showing new solutions and speaking with our channel partners and integrators. Here are some of the highlights:
INTELLIGENT MEETINGS
This was a big hit at the show. We highlighted the fully integrated solution combining room control (courtesy of the KX4) with conferencing and collaboration.
