Consultant Hartmann, Mathias and Partner is celebrating a win for CFOspace, a collaboration space at Ernst & Young’s Eschborn site, in this year’s Sinus awards.
The Sinus Integration Award, given during Prolight + Sound, recognised the installation that allows visualisation and analysis of data, effective data engineering and efficient and immersive coaching.
The digital lab supports full digital collaboration between CFOs and their teams. The 65 sq m room offers space where ideas can be presented interactively to customers and clients and can be edited collectively. Each showcase begins with an immersive intro produced on the four video screens, the surround sound system and on the LED illuminated ceiling, which serves as a fifth video screen.
CFOspace supports parallel use of Skype meetings and video conferences with the presentations. Wireless headsets are available for moderation.
Audio support for Skype and video conferences are implemented by two beam forming ceiling microphones. Together with the specifically adapted room acoustics these microphones allow speech recordings with excellent speech intelligibility.
Thomas Euring, partner of Hartmann, Mathias and Partner, headed up the project. “We are very glad that our project has been awarded,” he said. “CFOspace shows clearly how worldwide collaboration will change in times of digitalisation.“
