Make hybrid work awesome

Hybrid collaboration can be challenging. Remote teammates suffer from the "second-class citizen problem" - feeling excluded from spontaneous brainstorms, magic moments, and the creative energy of the office. Hybrid Spaces bridge the gap between remote and in-person teammates to make hybrid work the best of both worlds.

What are Hybrid Spaces?

Hybrid Spaces empower your remote employees to engage with their in-person teammates. Spaces are made up of multiple kiosks distributed across your office (open floor, meeting rooms, lounges...) to enable remote mobility and seamless interractions.

What is a Kiosk?

Every Hybrid space is made out of multiple “kiosks”. Kiosks are monitors equipped with a video and audio conferencing system that provide a window into your office.

Defining the Hybrid Workplace and What It Takes to Master It

“The future of work is hybrid”. You probably heard this sentence a dozen of times within the last year, and for good reason. As the pandemic starts easing down (in some parts of the world), companies are beginning to encourage their employees to come back to the office.

Hybrid Anxiety and Hybrid Optimism: The Near Future of Work

Hybrid work isn’t a straightforward, linear combination of remote and in-person work — it is a significant evolution of the modern enterprise that asks (as former Microsoft executive Steven Sinofsky has observed): What is the structure of getting things done?
