70 www. t e c h n o l o g y r e c o r d . c om Accelerated by the pandemic, the way we work is constantly evolving. Throughout 2021, we saw a dramatic increase in organisations allowing their employees to work from anywhere. The days of solely communicating with colleagues, partners and customers in person are a thing of the past. Now, people are communicating via phone, video and applications such as Microsoft Teams. Here at EPOS, we pride ourselves on having more than 115 years of audio expertise. With a rich history, we are not a new industry player – up until 2020 we were known as Sennheiser Communications, a company established in 2003 as a joint venture between audio specialist Sennheiser and the world-leading hearing healthcare group, Demant. In 2020, the two companies decided to conclude the joint venture and evolve the business segments into different set-ups. What is known as EPOS today was established from the former enterprise solutions and gaming business units. On the enterprise solutions side of the business, we have made it our mission to unleash human potential by perfecting the audio experience. As our communication continues to take place virtually, businesses will need to make sure their employees are equipped with technology designed to keep up. And while high quality audio is key, finding success in the hybrid working model is about more than just having the right headsets. Rather, it is about having an entire ecosystem of devices, including both audio and video solutions, to enable today’s professionals to thrive in the hybrid world. In order to thrive, organisations will need to invest in technology that people on both sides of the conversation (the speaker and listener), can have confidence in. Our Understanding Sound Experiences, 2021 report found that 88 per cent of decision makers say that bad audio has caused their company issues in Seamless collaboration As business communication becomes increasingly virtual, organisations must make sure that their employees are equipped with the technology to keep up J OHN HO : E POS V I EWPO I NT “Today’s business professionals need the best of the best when it comes to audio and video solutions”
