Case Study: Plantronics achieves faster, more immersive collaboration with PGi iMeet

How Plantronics and PGi Share a Culture of Innovation

Plantronics, a longtime leader in audio innovation, reached a strategic inflection point in 2012: having perfected sound, the company needed to shift toward creating richer, more immersive virtual collaboration. Jeffrey Seigel, VP of Strategy & New Business Development, was charged with driving revenue through a partner ecosystem and faced the challenge of finding technology that could support seamless, trust-building remote interactions and bring Plantronics’ contextual intelligence to life.

Plantronics partnered with PGi and adopted its iMeet platform to enable integrated web conferencing and embed Plantronics’ contextually intelligent headset features. The solution sped trust-building with new partners, increased engagement in external and internal meetings, supported serendipitous collaboration remotely, and positioned the companies for “better together” offerings — with Plantronics anticipating significant revenue impact from upcoming iMeet releases that incorporate its technology.
