Over the last several years, workplace dynamics have become more complicated than ever. Hybrid environments, remote workers, and digital tools have all changed the way companies engage their employees. In this environment, flexibility and efficiency are paramount. 

As the CEO of Korbyt, I am thrilled to share our recent acquisition of NFS Technology. This move represents a leap forward in our mission to redefine the modern workplace experience. The integration of our two platforms brings together the best of both worlds — Korbyt’s enterprise digital signage and omnichannel workplace communications and NFS Technology’s room booking and space management — to create a comprehensive workplace experience solution. This isn’t just about combining companies; it’s about creating a unified, future-proof platform that will empower organizations to engage their audiences wherever they are—from the office, call center, or production floor to university campuses or retail branches. 

A Workplace Experience Platform for a Hybrid World 

As hybrid work models become the norm, organizations face the challenge of maintaining a cohesive work environment that supports both remote and in-person collaboration. At Korbyt, we’ve been at the forefront of this evolution with our Korbyt Anywhere platform, which enables organizations to deliver on-brand messages systematically across multiple channels — including digital signage, desktop, mobile, web, and email. 

Our acquisition of NFS Technology’s Rendezvous product suite is a strategic move to enhance these capabilities. NFS Technology has made a name for itself with its advanced scheduling and space management solutions, crucial tools for today’s dynamic workplaces. By incorporating these functionalities into the Korbyt Anywhere platform, we are creating a solution that not only enhances internal communication but also optimizes the use of physical spaces — an essential component of a successful hybrid work strategy.

Enhancing Collaboration and Productivity 

One of the primary challenges in today’s work environment is ensuring that employees can collaborate effectively no matter where they work. In-person meetings and collaborative sessions are vital for driving creativity and team cohesion, but managing these interactions in a hybrid setting has been challenging. By unifying our platforms, Korbyt and NFS Technology will enable teams to transition smoothly between virtual and physical work environments, thereby enhancing productivity and overall employee effectiveness. 

With NFS Technology’s Rendezvous platform, which excels in meeting room booking and video conference scheduling, we can now offer a seamless solution for managing meetings that involve physical spaces and virtual workers. This integration means that organizations can efficiently manage their shared spaces while ensuring that remote employees remain connected and engaged. 

Beyond Employees: An Integrated Platform for Customers, Students, and Guests 

Desk and frontline workers are an essential audience for organizations to engage. But we at Korbyt understand that enterprises need to manage their interactions with other audiences, too—not just those on the payroll. That’s why digital signage and interactive displays for students, customers, and guests have always been essential to our platform.  

Now thanks to NFS Technology, we can help our customers better serve those audiences with integrated visitor management. Imagine delivering a completely unified, customized experience across every screen that a guest or customer encounters in your facility—from first stepping on the property and checking in at reception to meeting spaces and event venues. We consider every individual’s experience in the workplace, even if they don’t work there. 

Supporting Global Enterprises 

One of Korbyt’s key priorities is ensuring that our solutions meet the needs of our diverse customer base. The integration of Korbyt and NFS Technology not only broadens our product offerings but also expands our geographical reach. With a stronger presence in markets across Europe, Asia, Africa, and beyond, we can better support our customers with a consistent, bespoke experience tailored to the needs of complex, multinational enterprises. 

Korbyt’s new offices in the UK, India, and Australia will help provide localized expertise and customer service across different time zones and cultural contexts. This enhanced customer experience cements our commitment to delivering exceptional support and satisfaction to customers worldwide. 

Future-Proofing the Workplace Experience 

At Korbyt, our vision has always been to empower organizations with the tools they need to create engaging, productive, and future-ready workplaces. The integration of our platform with NFS Technology’s solutions is a testament to our commitment to this vision. We’re not just addressing the needs of today’s workplaces; we’re anticipating the challenges of tomorrow. 

The comprehensive platform we are now offering is adaptable, scalable, and designed to evolve with your organization’s needs. Whether you’re looking to enhance employee engagement across your hybrid enterprise, customer and visitor experiences, or optimize space management, Korbyt is here to support you every step of the way.
