What does the future of work look like in an era of hybrid models and AI-powered collaboration? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sit down with James Campanini from Logitech to explore how workplace technology is evolving to empower productivity, foster inclusivity, and reshape how we think about collaboration—beyond office walls.

For over 45 years, Logitech has connected people to the digital world, from early peripherals like mice and keyboards to today's advanced video conferencing and AI-driven solutions.

James shares how Logitech's approach to hybrid work isn't about forcing employees back into the office but rather about ensuring that work happens effectively—whether in an office, at home, or on the move. Businesses focusing on how people work rather than where they work are seeing higher engagement, reduced burnout, and better overall productivity.

We also dive into AI's role in Logitech's innovations for years, from intelligent camera systems that automatically adjust lighting to noise-canceling technology that ensures remote workers are heard as clearly as those in the room.

As AI continues transforming business operations, James explains why it's not about replacing human decision-making but optimizing workflows, reducing time spent on repetitive tasks, and making meetings more inclusive for everyone—regardless of location.

Beyond technology, we discuss a growing concern in the corporate world: employee monitoring. With increasing companies turning to surveillance tools, Logitech advocates for a different approach—focusing on presence rather than policing. By equipping teams with the right tools, organizations can create an environment of trust and collaboration rather than scrutiny and micromanagement.

We also explore real estate trends as businesses rethink office spaces, shifting from rows of desks to more flexible, multi-purpose environments that better support hybrid collaboration. What's the right balance between in-person and remote work? And how can technology ensure all employees have an equal seat at the table—physically and digitally?

With AI reshaping the way we work and businesses needing to do more with less, how can organizations create productive but also inclusive and engaging workplaces? Tune in to hear how Logitech is leading the way in redefining the future of work.
