The COVID-19 pandemic has forced many people to work from their homes, and the demand for collaboration tools and video conferencing solutions has skyrocketed. To meet the rising demand, Samsung has announced that it has tied hands with Logitech to offer collaboration and video conferencing solutions.
The new video conferencing solutions from the two companies include Samsung displays and Logitech's headsets and video cameras. The South Korean firm's displays include flat and curved desktop monitors and digital signages to turn any space—home or office—into effective meeting rooms. Logitech's USB-compatible video cameras, including Brio, C930e, C925e MeetUp, Rally, and Rally Plus, turn any location into an integrated workspace.
Samsung has listed these monitors on its dedicated website for home-office setups: C24T55, C27T55, C32T55, C34J79, F24T65, F27T85, F32TU87, and U32R59C. Video conferencing solutions of meeting rooms include QB50R, QB55R, QB65R, QB75R, QB98R, QE50T, QE55T, QE65T, QE70T, QE75T, QE82T, QM50R, QM55R, QM65R, QM75R, QM85N, QM98N, WM55R, and WM65R.
Paul Kim, Vice President of Visual Display Business, Samsung Electronics, said, “Globally, there is a growing need for enhanced collaboration solutions that can enable businesses to maintain continuity in the current landscape. We believe our partnership with Logitech, bringing together its dynamic video conferencing portfolio with Samsung's unmatched visual display technology, can play a major role in shaping the future of work, and we're excited for what is to come.”
According to App Annie, global weekly downloads of business apps reportedly surged from 33.7 million in October 2019 to 80 million in mid-April 2020. A report from Global Market Insights claims that the video conferencing market will reach a revenue of $50 billion by 2026. No wonder, every big tech firm wants a piece of it.
