Humly, a workplace technology and digital signage firm, has partnered with DataVisual Marketing, a Canada-based AV distribution firm, with a goal of expanding Humly's footprint in Canada, according to a press release.

As part of the deal, DataVisual will serve as a distributor for Humly technology in addition to providing sales, business development, and pre/post-sales support services.

"Canada's business landscape is characterized by the hybrid work model, with most businesses and government offices advocating for no more than two days in the office," Lisa Kislich-Lemyre, CEO at DataVisual, said in the release. "This shift has transformed offices into flexible spaces, where employees arrive without a designated workspace. This transition presents a prime opportunity for booking technologies that enable workers to reserve desks, meeting rooms, and other workspaces in advance or on the spot. Humly's solutions cater to both these needs, and most importantly, their booking solutions are user-friendly, making space booking a pleasant experience."

"Canada is a vast territory of large provinces, some of which are French-speaking and others that largely speak English," Anders Karlsson, CEO at Humly, said in the release. "It's therefore important to have a large and knowledgeable sales team that understands the cultural differences across different regions, while also working with a company that has a partner network capable of covering the entire country. DataVisual's large and impressive brand portfolio speaks to its ability to do both, and their ability to support the integration and end user community with their technical expertise is an added value. We look forward to their contributions."
