In February 2012, the company moved into a custom-built, five-floor head office
in Copenhagen, bringing a business previously distributed across four buildings
under one roof. The new premises provides an interactive environment for 1300
employees, as well as facilities to showcase the technologies and architectures
that the company deploys for its customers.

The move to the new building was a perfect opportunity for NNIT to construct an
integrated network infrastructure that would cohesively deliver wired and wireless
services, and be accessible to the wide variety of mobile devices typically used in
today’s high-tech business environment.

Security was paramount: NNIT is part of the pharmaceutical giant Novo Nordisk
A/S and, because it shares a data network with the parent company, it is subject
to stringent compliance. The network’s ability to deliver high-definition (HD) video
conferencing was also a priority. The new NNIT building houses a 1500-person
conference center and live broadcast capability, a meeting center with HD video
access for 80 people, and 25 regular meeting rooms that are also wired for
HD video.

The company makes extensive internal use of video; its project teams and support
professionals in Copenhagen collaborate regularly with colleagues in the company’s
global offices in the United States, China, the Philippines, Switzerland, and the Czech
Republic. And video is an increasingly important factor in external communication with
customers and partners too.

NNIT needed an infrastructure that would support this degree of collaboration. This
was vital to the highest possible standard of user experience, and savings on travel
costs, while getting customer propositions to market more quickly and efficiently.
