Commenting on the announcement, Frank Beechinor, CEO of SmartSpace said: "We are delighted to announce our first partnering agreement with Evoko. There are two key aspects of this relationship which are important. Firstly, that our software will be Evoko branded which in itself is a strong endorsement from an innovator such as Evoko. Secondly, this agreement gives us an instant indirect route to market more quickly than building a channel, partner by partner. This approach will allow us to accelerate growth and to enter new territories at a faster pace. We look forward to building a successful and long-term relationship with Evoko."

 

Commenting on the announcement, Richard Glückman, CEO of Evoko said: "The Evoko Liso has always done a great job at solving the hassle with meeting room bookings at the meeting rooms.

On top of that, it will extend our services to new areas, such as setting the room layout and booking catering for the meeting. Our solutions complement each other in really good ways and we look forward to continue to build our partnership and finding new ways to help organization have magnificent meetings."
