At this year’s SIGGRAPH 2023 conference in Los Angeles, NVIDIA made a series of announcements that highlight the company’s innovations, particularly in the field of generative artificial intelligence (AI) and graphics. Five years ago, NVIDIA introduced RTX, enabling real-time ray tracing with graphics processing units (GPUs) through AI.
It seems like every communications provider is touting its ability to improve customer and employee experiences with a converged Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS) and Contact Center as a Service (CCaaS) offering. Conceptually, the coming together of UCaaS and CCaaS makes sense. Integrating the two previously separate domains enables seamless workflows that span back office and front office.
For the past few years, artificial intelligence has been front and center in the communications industry. This has been spurred further this year with the release of ChatGPT, which has put generative AI in the cross hairs.
RingCentral has broadened its collaboration platform through the acquisition of select assets from Hopin, an online audience engagement technology provider.
This acquisition includes Hopin’s flagship Events platform and Session product, signaling a strategic move by RingCentral to bring customers more dynamic, interactive video solutions through virtual events.

As a business grows, UC tools can quickly adapt to handle more users.
