WeWork India, a flexible workspace provider, has made its first investment in the Bengaluru-based conferencing and collaboration platform Zoapi. The latter is an enterprise software as a service (SaaS) solution provider that combines the four basic needs of a meeting room—wireless screen sharing, video conferencing, online calendar and room scheduler.

With corporates organically transitioning to a hybrid work model, there has been a growing demand for the benefits of collaboration in a workspace. As organisations reevaluate their real estate requirements, adopting advanced tech capabilities helps optimise cost. 

Zoapi supports numerous video conferencing facilities and collaboration applications for immersive meetings with a hardware-agnostic build as an open platform. These include Zoom, MS Teams, Skype, Google Meet, Webex and Polycom.

From an adoption perspective, it is affordable and compatible with numerous video conferencing platforms and devices. With its unique capabilities, this homegrown product has the potential to grow into a global player, implemented across all industries. By combining our technologies, we wish to take Zoapi to a larger audience and facilitate seamless communication for businesses of all sizes,” said Karan Virwani, the chief executive office of WeWork India.

“Over the years, our strategic partnership with WeWork India has generated insightful data about user consumption patterns and needs. We believe that we can globally power conferences and meeting rooms with our SaaS solution, enabling stakeholders to have effective meetings,” added Prashanth N.S, co-founder and CEO of Zoapi Innovations.
