CUSTOMER STORY

New video wall meeting spaces transform collaboration and innovation

Company introduction:

Bayer Crop Science develops pest-resistant vegetable seeds designed to maximise crop yields, helping to improve food security and enable more sustainable agriculture. The company is part of the multinational Bayer Group, a global life sciences and biotechnology corporation, and maintains a key research, seed processing, and business facility at Bergschenhoek in the Netherlands.

Challenge: 

Making progress on research or commercial projects requires close collaboration between employees. However, aging and unreliable equipment in the meeting rooms at the Bergschenhoek site made it difficult for users to connect with colleagues working remotely, and to share ideas during on-site workshops. Faulty microphones and speakers caused frustrating audio issues, while some rooms had no videoconferencing facilities.

Solution and benefits:

To facilitate collaboration, Bayer Crop Science set out to modernize the user experience and look-and-feel of the meeting rooms, and selected Ricoh to supply and install integrated solutions. The rooms now feature 4K LG screens and cameras, Biamp speakers, tabletop microphones, touch panel controllers, Microsoft Teams Rooms solutions, and much more. In the largest room, the company also has a video wall consisting of nine screens, plus ceiling-mounted, handheld, and headset microphones for presentations and live events.
