Living sustainably, the theme of this year's World Environment Day, is about doing more and better with less. Barco is confident that its solutions can help enterprises run in a more sustainable way. How? By letting people share information and insights, we help them work smarter and collaborate better, for example.

Work smarter, to reduce carbon emissions

The rapid globalization of business demands robust solutions that bring people, ideas and information together. Did you know that our ClickShare meeting room system works with videoconferencing equipment from most major vendors? In this way, it allows people around the world to share ideas and take decisions together, wherever they are located - thus significantly cutting CO2 emissions…

The power of the network

Of course, there are many more Barco solutions that foster remote collaboration. Our CMS software, which is used together with our video wall solutions, provides operators and decision-makers with easy access to video, images and data, both in- and outside the building where the video wall is located. As does our Nexxis operating room management system … Again, this helps reduce the need for transportation and cuts the carbon emissions linked to our transport …

Insight, to encourage sustainable choices

Moreover, our solutions also help professionals make sustainable choices. Thanks to a clear overview of the energy or traffic network, for example, operators at utilities or traffic control centers can choose the most efficient distribution of energy sources or the shortest way to travel… That's just another way of how Barco's solutions help build a greener world.

Tomorrow we'll talk about our products themselves. How sustainable are Barco displays? What is their impact on our planet? And what about the sustainability of our suppliers? Don't miss that newsroom item!
