Reelay expects this new online destination to be an invaluable resource for any organization wanting to stay informed of the latest developments in both virtual and in-person collaboration.

Zoom fatigue is the state of weariness associated with overuse of virtual platforms of communication, especially video conferencing. The phrase is derived from the cloud-based platform offered by Zoom Video Communications, Inc. However, the term can refer to fatigue from any video platform such as Microsoft Teams or Google Meet, just to name a few.

Reelay is pleased to announce today the addition of Terry Schallich to its board of advisors. With more than two decades of senior leadership in technology investment banking, institutional brokerage management, and merger and acquisition (M&A) transactions, Terry brings a wealth of corporate finance knowledge to Reelay’s already impressive team of advisors.

With the introduction of large language model-based applications such as ChatGPT from OpenAI, Bard from Google, and the soon-to-be introduced Ernie from Baidu, it’s safe to say that artificial intelligence (AI) is the newest “most significant ever” technology to be unleashed upon the unsuspecting world.

The world today is on the precipice of another profound change. Over the past century, we have witnessed the proliferation of the microprocessor, the introduction of the personal computer, the explosion of the internet, and the ubiquity of social media. Today, artificial intelligence (AI) sits at our doorstep.

Reelay announced today the acquisition of patented intellectual property and accompanying software related to online sentiment analysis and meeting analytics from InspireMe Video Collaboration, a component of TrustedInc.

Reelay announces Michael Peters as its new Senior Intellectual Property Advisor. As Founder and CEO of Trusted Inc., an information technology and services company engaged in blockchain solutions and video conferencing tools, Michael brings almost three decades of technical expertise and software development experience to Reelay’s senior advisory board.

Described as “the smart meeting attendant that automatically captures insights and action items without additional downloads or installs,” Reelay allows attendees to focus exclusively on the purpose of the meeting without other distractions.

Reelay is pleased to announce today the addition of Wes Davis and Mike Quirin to its senior advisory board. In addition to years of world-class software integration experience, both Wes and Mike are seasoned technology entrepreneurs and founding partners of Alchemy Technology Group, LLC, a leading IT advisory, consulting, and reseller firm focused on end-user experience, security, and datacenter transformation.

The company’s new online presence focuses on the benefits of its intelligent meeting attendant platform for enterprise level organizations. Included on the site is an animated overview of how Reelay’s easy-to-use software works and how teams can now dramatically increase productivity every time they have a virtual meeting.

“There's no question in my mind that making (county meetings) accessible virtually has increased if not participation then at least attendance,” said county spokesman Ted Holteen. “If someone can just flick it on while they're multitasking, whether they're at home, whether they're at work, they can sit there and watch as opposed to having to drive – I mean, that's just common sense.”

Despite some organizations going as far as to tell employees to turn down meetings they find unbeneficial, executives and their employees seem to be in more virtual meetings than ever before. A recent analysis from the Harvard Business Review (HBR) that focused on remote work engagement found there were 60% more remote meetings per employee last year, as compared to 2020.

Those who want to attend, vote, and submit questions during the annual meeting can visit the virtual meeting website and enter a control number included in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials provided to shareholders. Apple states online access will open approximately 15 minutes before the start of the meeting, but questions can be submitted in advance through Thursday, March 9 at 8:59 p.m. Pacific Time. Voting is open to shareholders of record at the close of business on January 9, 2023.
