0 48

Polycom announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the International Institute of Information Technology (IIIT), Hyderabad in collaborative research for development of new video collaboration products and solutions. The MoU encompasses joint research in developing video technology solutions and through this collaboration, Polycom also aims to nurture the next generation of researchers and provide a marketplace for innovations and developments by IIIT students.

Polycom and IIIT Hyderabad will also jointly engage with their respective R& D labs to develop UC related programs and projects which are of benefit to end-users. This mutual partnership will also allow Polycom to tap into IIIT Hyderabad’s available resource pool of IT professionals and enable Polycom’s own technology professionals to enhance their professional development and career paths through the institute’s technical courses.

“Video collaboration is a mission-critical business solution and we constantly strive to enable our customers with solutions that increase efficiency and productivity, while delivering the industry’s lowest Total Cost of Ownership (TCO),” said Balaji Iyer, General Manager, R&D, Polycom India. “The signing of the MOU with IIIT Hyderabad will result in a meaningful collaborative research effort between our teams, and reaffirms our commitment to nurturing the best talent within India.”

Iyer pointed out that customers are not just looking for intelligence in their technology solutions, but also strong return on their investment. “We will work closely with IIIT-H researchers on various video collaboration functionalities, among other aspects making the technology even more intuitive and enhancing the overall customer experience.”

“IIIT Hyderabad is known for its excellence in research in computing and communications. Our research centres on computer vision, language and speech technologies among others address problems that are closely related to Polycom’s business goals. Polycom’s world class infrastructure, innovations, and R&D capabilities will provide excellent exposure for IIIT-H students and faculty in addition to several projects and programmes in which both organisations will collaborate. In turn, we look forward to making significant contributions to Polycom’s drive in enhancing the overall video collaboration experience for customers”, said Vasudeva Varma, Dean of Research at IIIT Hyderabad.
