LG Opens New Business Innovation Center Targeting B2B Partners
LG Business Solutions USA’s latest Business Innovation Center (BIC) has opened at LG Electronics’ North American headquarters in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey. The 3,600-square-foot showroom provides resellers, partners, and customers with a technology showcase that demonstrates LG’s full portfolio of commercial technologies and business solutions.
David Bacher, head of marketing at LG Business Solutions USA, remarks that the new BIC aims to assist B2B partners and customers in their research and planning for future workplace developments and commercial establishments.
“Our new LG BIC offers integrators and commercial customers a gallery-like experience where each awe-inspiring exhibit evokes new opportunities made possible by the latest LG innovations,” Bacher said, highlighting digital signage displays, DVLED solutions, projectors, gram laptops, edge computing products, IT solutions, EV chargers, CLOi autonomous mobile robots, medical displays and more. “We want this showroom to be a reference for technology professionals and businesses across the northeast as they consider new tech-enabled solutions and experiences for every location from hospitals and retail stores to restaurants and entertainment venues.”
Designed as a walk-through experience, BIC visitors are welcomed by LG’s full line of CLOi autonomous mobile robots including CarryBot, GuideBot and ServeBot, alongside a wall-sized LG DVLED (direct-view light-emitting diode) display.
Continuing through the entrance, the next area houses numerous large-scale LG DVLED displays demonstrating a variety of use cases including a 217-inch UHD-quality MAGNIT display that leverages a colorful mosaic of Micro LED chips.A number of All-in-One DVLED models up to 163 inches in size show how easy it can be to add a large, dramatic canvas to any space with built-in processing and stereo speakers.
Visitors then proceed to the EV charger section to learn how multiple models of LG’s recently-launched electric vehicle charging stations suit commercial charging needs for various B2B customers from hotels and restaurants to hospitals and schools to stadiums and offices.
The nearby computing area offers hands-on experience with LG gram laptops ranging from 11 inches to 17 inches and a large variety of IT and desktop solutions including monitors up to 49 inches with 4K and ultrawide options, thin client all-in-ones and thin client boxes for flexible edge computing.
LG’s commercial line of ProBeam and CineBeam projectors is the next visible display, which sits directly across from a dedicated room for digital signage.. The digital signage exhibit includes LCD displays up to 110 inches, LG Ultrastretch displays with aspect ratios up to 58:9 to bring unused and leftover space to life, a 4K Gallery OLED display, outdoor-rated displays and the LG Transparent OLED.
The next stop shows off LG’s growing family of medical solutions. It features a variety of digital displays including diagnostic monitors, radiology monitors, surgical monitors and computer monitors with special features such as unique aspect ratios for optimized viewing of medical images and documents.
The BIC’s final section shows off a variety of commercial-grade Smart Hotel TVs in 55- and 75-inch sizes with up to 4K Ultra HD resolution. Each model includes the LG Pro:Centric Smart platform that enables use of modern solutions including content streaming and interface customization. Plus, LG hotel TVs are now equipped with Alexa for Hospitality and Apple Airplay capabilities.
“The NJ BIC is a technological playground for integrators to show clients the vast possibilities offered by implementing LG commercial technologies, and to experience how they truly look, feel and operate to aid their decisions and generate excitement about making new investments,” Bacher said. “We’re excited to build on the success of our Los Angeles, Chicago and Atlanta BICs to give northeast businesses all the information and experience they need to outfit their next forward-looking school, store, attraction, restaurant, transit hub, hospital ward or any other public location with class-leading technologies.”
