The award recognizes Lifesize’s video conferencing technology, including its industry-leading advancements in 4K video service architecture and meeting room systems, approach to enterprise-grade security, dedication to open standards like WebRTC and integrations with other collaboration tools, all of which are integral to businesses’ communication and productivity.
