News Image
The Audio Business of Keenfinity Group has signed an acquisition agreement with Avonic, a specialist provider of AI-driven cameras and voice-tracking technologies for the AV conferencing market.

The strategic move is designed to strengthen Keenfinity's Audio Conference portfolio by integrating advanced video capabilities, providing system integrators and equipment providers with a seamless, one-stop audio and video solution.

Both companies are established suppliers of professional conferencing technology, serving mission-critical environments across government, including councils, parliaments, international institutions and higher education, as well as commercial settings such as corporate boardrooms and international events. As hybrid meetings continue to evolve, video has become an essential component, providing visual context through speaker visibility and interaction cues. By combining AI-enabled video with reliable, high-quality voice communication, Keenfinity aims to deliver a future-proof and intuitive meeting experience for both in-person and remote participants.

"This acquisition helps to expand our leadership position in the conferencing segment. More importantly, it supports our mission of delivering exceptional user experience by enabling our customers total, seamless and integrated solutions, whatever the vertical," said David Hunter, CEO of the Audio Business at Keenfinity Group. "With Avonic's AI-driven video capabilities seamlessly integrated into our conference solutions, we will be creating more engaging and natural experiences, where human connection takes centre stage."

Bosch-branded conference solutions, now part of the Keenfinity Group's Audio Business, continue to hold a leading position in the global conferencing market. Building on more than 75 years of expertise, these secure and professional communication solutions are recognised for their quality, flexibility and reliability. The addition of Avonic's PTZ cameras and AI-powered software is expected to further enhance innovation and integration, enabling partners to deliver advanced, high-performance conferencing systems.

"Our cameras are deployed globally in professional, high impact meeting environments where decisions truly matter," said Walter Harrewijn, CEO of Avonic. "Moving beyond our long-term technology partnership, this acquisition allows us to collectively grow our offering, delivering more integrated solutions for new applications, use cases and markets."
