Aramco chooses Barco solutions

Saudi Arabia’s state-owned oil company Aramco has selected a range of solutions from Barco to enhance productivity and interaction in its key head office meeting room.

Aramco, a fully integrated, global petroleum and chemicals enterprise wanted to develop a state-of-the- art meeting space using the latest technological solutions.

The installation has seen Aramco’s meeting room equipped with a brand new eight metre Barco video wall, the largest of its kind in the Middle East. The video wall is powered by eight Barco full HD F35 7,500-lumen projectors, providing the high performance required for a wide spectrum of professional applications.

The cooperation between Barco and Aramco goes back many years. In addition to the stunning video wall, Aramco selected one of Barco’s wireless ClickShare presentation systems to encourage further collaboration and interactivity during meetings. The ClickShare system will enable all of the meeting participants to be on screen, as the tool allows users to share content in the most intuitive way possible by simply pushing a button. Designed to enhance collaboration, the wireless solution leads to better and faster decision-making and has been proven in company meeting rooms across the globe.

Eric Brouwers, Vice President MEA, Barco said: “This really is one of the key companies in Saudi, which stands as a role model to many other Middle East businesses. Their meeting room is just another example of their constant quest to integrate the very best technology, in order to deliver the best possible results. We truly hope that the set-up will inspire other companies to ‘think Barco’ when equipping their meeting rooms.”
