Access to onsite collaboration spaces made easier with user-friendly Humly Room Displays, which blend into 3ASport’s sophisticated workplace aesthetic
STOCKHOLM/VERONA – 3A Sport, a sportswear distributor headquartered in the Italian province of Verona, has officially deployed Humly Room Display hardware devices outside its many meeting spaces to accommodate room bookings and more in the workplace. Humly’s award-winning premium hardware solution provides 3A Sport employees with an easily accessible interface to book collaboration sessions, while its sleek design seamlessly blends into the office environment.
3A Sport represents iconic houses such as Calvin Klein, Converse, Nike, and Tommy Hilfiger, and company representatives expressed interest in installing booking solutions outside meeting rooms that mirrored the fashionable aesthetic of these globally recognized brands. 3A Sport reached out to Satnet, a distributor of video, audio and control products based in Turin, to help source a solution that met their operational requirements and aesthetic vision in equal measure.
It just so happens that Satnet has served as an Italian distributor of Humly’s workplace experience solutions since 2022. Upon meeting with 3A Sport representatives, the Satnet team suggested that Humly Room Displays would provide a flexible, easy-to-use booking solution with a timeless iconic design to offer a touch of visual class. Its flexible feature set would also provide value for advertising company events in digital signage mode during certain hours of the workday.
Satnet worked with the 3A Sport team to mount the compact displays on a variety of surfaces, including wall spaces and glass surfaces adjacent to meeting room doors. All Humly Room Displays are controlled through the Humly Control Panel, which is connected to an on-premise Linux server.
“As a distributor of fashion sportswear, we prioritize quality design and aesthetics both in the products that we sell and the environment we provide to our employees,” said Andrea Cordioli, system administrator at 3A Sport.
“For our offices, we were looking for a meeting room management interface that was easy to use and pleasing to the eye—but unobtrusive at the same time. Humly Room Display panel fulfilled all these criteria.” Andrea Cordioli, 3A Sport.
The 3A Sport deployment illustrates Humly’s growing presence in Italy, amplified through its partnership with Satnet. The Satnet team has effectively increased Humly’s market visibility and brand recognition throughout Italy over its two-year partnership, emphasizing onsite demonstrations at local AV integration firms, conferences and exhibitions, among other educational resources showcasing Humly solutions. Gualtiero Anselmetti, sales manager at Satnet, says that the Humly brand is generating significant interest in the urban centers of Milan and Rome, where both large corporations and government agencies are increasingly leveraging meeting room and scheduling technologies to enhance collaboration between employees.
“The demand for modern meeting and conferencing solutions is on the rise throughout Italy, and the organizations we work with in these major urban centers seek innovative workplace solutions that are quick to learn and easy to manage,” said Anselmetti. “We have received very positive feedback on the Humly products that we offer, including Humly Room Display and the newer Humly Booking Device."
"We strongly believe in Humly’s ability to optimize the modern workplace experience, and we are committed to making it a familiar name across Italy.”

Touted for its award-winning design, the Humly Room Display is an interactive interface that lets users access the name and current booking status of meeting rooms, view future bookings, book new collaboration sessions, end or extend current meetings, and automatically cancel sessions if no one has checked in. The display also allows users to find other available spaces when their first choice is occupied, integrate with sensors and other equipment in the meeting space, and report meeting room equipment failures.
Humly Room Displays are compatible with Appspace, Google Workspace, Microsoft Office 365/Exchange, and Nexudus. Their open API is designed to enable deep, seamless integrations with other solutions in addition to Humly’s integrations with leading smart office and collaboration tools. The displays have been developed based on the security standards set out by ENISA’s (European Union Agency for Cybersecurity) Hardware Threat Landscape and Good Practice Guide, and CIS’ (Center for Internet Security) Cybersecurity Best Practices.
