“We live in a world where more people are having more meetings, making the workplace more complicated due to distracting meeting room searches throughout the day” says Matej Zalar, co-founder of Visionect, “As a result, workers spend more time dealing with scheduling issues during the work day, ultimately wasting resources. We noticed this was a problem at Visionect and created Joan as a solution to simplify the work day. Our desire to optimize our own meetings led us to believe that other businesses might want to do the same, so we created a product that can be easily executed in offices around the world.”

To show businesses around the world how much money they could save by using meeting scheduling technology, Joan has created a microsite to calculate the amount of money lost each day due to meeting-related distractions. On average, more than 70 percent of people working in offices feel distracted at work due to meetings, costing companies thousands of dollars.

“Meetings and conference rooms are often the last part of the office that anyone thinks about, until they’re needed,” says Zalar. “Interruptions caused by meeting room searches at small and medium size businesses cost on average more than $54,000 in revenue each year. Not only do we want to offer a simple, flexible solution for meeting scheduling, but we also wanted to provide a resource for businesses to better educate themselves about the importance of efficient meetings.”

Joan is simplifying the meeting scheduling process around the world for more than 2 million users in over 20 languages in 82 countries. Using digital paper, e-ink technology, cordless installation and seamlessly syncs to Wi-Fi, Joan is an efficient, environmentally conscious solution for any office. The new devices come in two sizes, with a sleek design, easy setup and flexible software subscription plans.
