Challenge

Mastercard Foundation, one of the largest philanthropic organizations in the world, needed a scalable audio visual installation across 7 offices. The objective was to enable seamless communication, consistent meeting experiences, and a professional-grade public address system, all while accommodating various types of environments including meeting rooms, open collaboration areas, and shared workspaces. They needed a solution that was reliable, scalable, and easy to manage across geographically distributed teams from traditional boardrooms to open-plan offices where mobility and aesthetics mattered.

Avientek’s Approach

Understanding the scale and diversity of the deployment, took a tailored, multi-brand approach. Each solution component was selected to match the specific use case of different spaces whether it was a formal video conference, a quick huddle, or a campus-wide announcement. Through close coordination with the stakeholders and local integrators, we ensured consistency in user experience while addressing the unique needs of each location.

The Solution
Yealink Video Conferencing Systems
Deployed across meeting rooms for high-quality, Microsoft Teams-native video calls, ensuring smooth collaboration and minimal learning curve for users
TOA Public Address System
Provided clear and robust audio across common areas and emergency zones, supporting both announcements and background audio
Artome Mobile Presentation Solutions
Ideal for open and flexible spaces, Artome units delivered plug-and-play AV capabilities without requiring fixed installations, perfect for agile and reconfigurable workspaces Each space was integrated with smart control and remote management, allowing IT teams to monitor and manage systems efficiently across all locations.
The Outcome
The deployment has transformed how Mastercard Foundation teams connect and communicate across Africa. Staff can now engage in efficient video meetings, impactful presentations, and reliable campus-wide communications, regardless of which office they are in.
The open-space mobility provided by Artome, coupled with TOA’s clarity and Yealink’s enterprise-grade UC platform, has enabled the organization with a future-ready communication ecosystem.
