Revolabs has formally been renamed Yamaha Unified Communications.
‘In becoming Yamaha Unified Communications, we’re not simply changing our name. We’re raising the bar for ourselves in order to live up to everything Yamaha stands for,’ says Yamaha Unified Communications CEO, Mick Kamihara. ‘We’re committing to the brand promise of a company known throughout the world for its product excellence and renowned standards of form and function.’
Over the past two years, Yamaha has laid the groundwork for the name change by creating a Yamaha Unified Communications department and by jointly developing the CS-700 Video Sound Bar solution with Revolabs. By marrying the technology and expertise of the two operations, Yamaha Unified Communications aims to provide cross-solution support that will address the growing range of business communication applications.
‘Our engineers are focused on developing products that bring simplicity, clarity, and efficiency to today’s nuanced and hectic business ecosystem,’ Kamihara says. ‘By combining ultra-high quality audio, ease of connectivity, and the ultimate in flexibility, we’re erasing barriers to make collaboration across the table and across the globe more compelling, dynamic, and meaningful.’
Founded in 2005, Revolabs has developed, manufactured and marketed remote conferencing systems, wireless microphone systems, and other UC products. Since becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Yamaha in 2014, it has played a role in Yamaha’s UC business activities. Yamaha has now changed the corporate name of Revolabs – headquartered in Massachusetts – to indicate its relationship with the Yamaha Group. The change is expected to raise recognition of the Yamaha brand and increase its corporate value.
‘Our mission remains the same,’ says a company statement, ‘to develop audio and video teleconferencing solutions that enhance collaboration and boost productivity wherever people work. Just like every other part of Yamaha Corporation, we’re committed to excellence, authenticity, and innovation in every product we design and build. Our goal is to ensure joy, beauty, confidence and discovery are the customer’s response to experiencing, using, and owning our products.’
