Bose has acquired ZiipRoom, an innovative developer of productivity and connectivity software for meeting rooms, conferences and devices.
Under the new structure, ZiipRoom will integrate into Bose Professional, the dedicated group within the company that focuses on professional audio designers, consultants and system integrators. The announcement was made by Akira Mochimaru, General Manager for Bose Professional, and ‘further underscores the ongoing commitment by Bose to provide the most comprehensive and intuitive tools for system integrators and end users alike’.
ZiipRoom is software for huddle rooms purpose-built to connect people and technology to make meetings consistent, simple, productive and free from vendor lock-in. ZiipRoom’s vendor-agnostic solution was designed to deliver the simplicity, productivity, intelligence and IT manageability required to allow organisations to operate meeting rooms effectively using a wide range of existing and future technologies and systems.
ZiipRoom CEO and co-founder Martin Bodley, former CEO of RevoLabs, will be leading the enterprise conferencing category for Bose Professional at its headquarters in Framingham, Massachusetts.
‘We are thrilled to bring ZiipRoom technology to Bose Professional,’ Bodley says. ‘Bose is heavily investing in developing the next generation of communications tools, and we share their values. We look forward to combining forces to offer market-driven solutions and engaging, user-friendly experiences.’
