TIG opens new ‘Experience Spaces’ in Frankfurt and London

Technological Innovations Group (TIG), headline partner for Hotel Designs LIVE, has opened two of its brand-new series of Experience Spaces – in Frankfurt and London…

These innovative spaces will welcome integrators, consultants, specifiers and end-users and showcase TIG’s impressive ecosystem of AV, UC, IT and control solutions from brands at the forefront of leading-edge technology development, in a safe and socially-distanced way.

The new Experience Spaces will serve to demonstrate how TIG’s ecosystem of world-class brands work together to form bespoke bundles that match the client’s exact brief, and help integrators deploy fully integrated, tailor-made and futureproof smart spaces in a wide range of environments including corporate, retail, residential, hospitality, education and healthcare.

The locations of the new Experience Spaces were carefully chosen for their ease of accessibility and central positions in both Frankfurt and London. They are located in: 

WeWork – Fifth floor
No 1 Poultry
London
EC2R 8EJ
UK

Marienforum – Seventh floor
Mainzer Landstr. 1
60329 Frankfurt am Main
Germany 

Guests can book their personalised visit with one of TIG’s experts by going to: www.tig.eu/events#booking-form. TIG is committed to adhering to Covid-safety and strict social distancing regulations, and all meetings will be held in private with the most relevant TIG specialist on hand.

With ISE 2021 postponed, and many other industry events being cancelled, TIG is planning to host bespoke and small-scale events in its Experience Spaces over the coming months, which will offer an intimate and safe platform to see first-hand how the technologies that TIG represents integrate. These events will see safety measures in place and virtual elements to reach those unable to travel. 

The Experience Spaces follow the successful launch of TIG’s Virtual Experience Space back in June, when the opening of the real-life Experience Spaces had to be postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic. The Virtual Experience Space is an immersive online space as part of TIG’s new website that has been carefully designed to welcome and deliver an engaging and life-like experience for visitors. For those unable to attend the real-life Experience Spaces in Frankfurt and London, the Virtual Experience Space is still available to them.

TIG’s ecosystem includes:

  • Collaboration and residential smart space technology from Crestron 
  • Stylish control panels for the hotel and home from Black Nova 
  • The Desk Sign and Blynclight ranges from Embrava, which display employee and workspace availability, and indicate whether desks have been disinfected before next use
  • Remote monitoring and power distribution solutions from GUDE
  • Innovative tools and software from Hoylu for remote collaboration and accessible digital group learning
  • User-friendly yet advanced meeting scheduling and management software from NFS
  • Luxury custom switches and sockets from Rhombus Europe
  • Made-to-order furniture from Salamander Designs that fits in perfectly with specific AV products
  • And, most recently, show-stopping energy efficient LED displays from SiliconCore

Robin van Meeuwen, TIG’s CEO, comments: “The opening of our Experience Spaces in Frankfurt and London is the next big step for TIG! We have been excited about this development for a long time now. The delay due to Covid-19 has actually given us more time to plan these spaces even more carefully and ensure our fantastic brands are represented in the best way possible.

“Whilst it has been a big investment for TIG, we believe the best way to bring our technology to the customer is by letting them experience it first-hand. Our partners and customers deserve a space that showcases how technology can transform the way we live, work and collaborate. I’d like to say to them now that our team is ready and waiting to welcome you, discuss your deployments and provide a solutions-based approach to fulfil your client’s needs.

“This year has been a difficult one for many organisations, but we are confident that TIG can now be recognised as the place to come to help your clients overcome today’s challenges and feel prepared for tomorrow, with a focus on efficiency, adaptability, safety and security. We look forward to welcoming all our valued partners and customers to our new spaces in the UK and Germany – with Paris, Johannesburg and Moscow to follow soon!”
