    Located in the vibrant business district Shinagawa, i-PRO’s new headquarters will become a new core hub to showcase the company’s latest technological innovation through interactive demonstrations, training sessions, certification classes and presentations. The new offices will include advanced creative workspaces and act as an easily accessible hub where customers, partners and investors will have the opportunity to experience the new i-PRO spirit. The new headquarters will showcase i-PRO's market-leading, edge-computing devices and illustrate the company’s two key pillars: enabling an open platform and igniting speed and agility within its go-to-market strategy.

     “Although the global establishment of i-PRO started in 2019, some regions up until April 1, 2022, still retained the Panasonic branding and shared physical locations,” said Gerard Figols, President, i-PRO EMEA B.V. “Relocating and expanding our i-PRO headquarters is an important milestone in the creation of our company and a key step in our mission to be the trusted next-generation partner for the security industry.”
