Axis Communications has celebrated the grand re-opening of its Axis Experience Center (AEC) in Chelmsford, Mass. The upgraded Boston-area AEC has been renovated to include additional meeting spaces, an expanded lab, a demo room, and design studio, allowing Axis to better support customers and partners throughout Northern New England.

Home to Axis’ Americas headquarters, the Chelmsford AEC serves a variety of local industries including retail, education, transportation, biopharma, and more, providing on-the-ground support for organizations using Axis products and solutions. The 12,478-square-foot state-of-the-art experience center is located outside of Boston, the most populous city in New England and a thriving technology and innovation hub.

“As a longstanding member of the Northern New England business community, Axis is proud to bring the newest technological innovations and enhanced support to the Boston area and beyond,” said Aaron Kahn, business area director, Northeast at Axis Communications. “With over a dozen experience centers located across the United States, Axis’ AECs are vital to our success. We look forward to welcoming local partners and customers to the newly renovated facility.”

Each Axis AEC offers a dedicated, in-person meeting space for customers and partners alike to visit, and to demo and experience Axis solutions in simulated, real-life environments. AECs are thoughtfully designed to accommodate different stakeholder interests and allow them a unique, hands-on opportunity to test Axis’ suite of advanced technologies and capabilities that span security use cases and beyond, the announcement states.

The Chelmsford AEC is equipped with notable features to aid in conducting comprehensive technology demonstrations and business-related events, including:

• A design studio, golf simulator, large video wall, and image usability lab
• Axis’ entire catalog of products and services is represented at the facility, with wearables and in-car solutions prominently displayed
• Five high-tech meeting rooms available for Axis partners and customers to host meetings, trainings, or conferences

Axis representatives, along with customers, partners, and local community members, celebrated the grand re-opening of the Chelmsford AEC on June 12. Festivities included a formal ribbon cutting, facility tours that demonstrate camera, audio, intercom, and analytic technologies, and live entertainment from a caricature artist and a magician.
