The Smarter Spaces Podcast, Ep. 21

Earlier this year, Crestron rolled out our Modern Workplace Certification path. Now we’re releasing an online version. It was built for workplace designers, sales teams, consultants, and on-site IT and AV professionals. But how do we define modern work — and how do we determine just what tech and training needs to be part of the curriculum? We dig into those questions with Kyle Marles, manager of curriculum development at Crestron.

The Smarter Spaces Podcast, Ep. 20

We hear a lot about “high-impact spaces” — those rooms where critically important decisions are made and vital information is shared. A great example is the New York Giants Draft Room, a place we’ve visited before. In this podcast, however, we’ll talk about the engineering that’s “under the hood” of a space that’s this important — recorded right in the room itself. We’ll also learn how one high-impact project can impact another, even in different settings and verticals — and speak to Super Bowl champ and current Giants scout Chris Snee.
