Design Criteria
Goldman Sachs is a leading global investment banking, securities and investment management firm that provides a wide range of services worldwide to a diversified client base that includes corporations, financial institutions, governments and high net worth individuals. To improve collaboration and communication both internally and with external clients, Goldman Sachs insisted on a videoconferencing and audio visual solution that integrated with their overall room aesthetics, allowed instant multimedia collaboration between offices, and was easy to use for both internal and external personnel.
Solutions
This unique solution includes both a front projection formatted screen and a dual plasma videoconferencing system. Separate speech and stereo systems segregate then audio for a cleaner representation of each medium. Presenters access the system via a wireless touch panel interface which was designed in conjunction with Goldman Sachs personnel to allow for any user to become instantly comfortable with the system. The control system allows for control over DVD/VCR transport functions, device input selections, lighting control, system volume, among others. Both projection and plasma screens can display one of the following sources: Videoconferencing, DVD, VCR, CATV, and up to 2 ea. Computer Images.
Benefits
The net result of Cenero's design... Goldman Sachs enjoys a reduction in travel costs between regional offices, improved visibility to new opportunities both locally and world wide, and increased access to industry resources. The audio visual system delivers 'high impact' presentations that 'wow' audiences and allow for a higher level of content retention. The system integrates seamlessly into their design scheme and can be easily accessed and operated by virtually any Goldman Sachs employee.
