Monday 9th November 2026: Ipsotek, an Eviden business, has been named a 2026 winner in the Business Reporter Best of Global Business campaign, in association with The Independent.
As part of the campaign, the feature, Visual intelligence for smarter enterprise decisions, sees Ipsotek CEO & CTO Dr Boghos Boghossian explore how AI video analytics can transform existing camera infrastructure into a source of actionable intelligence, helping organisations better understand their physical operations, identify issues earlier and make more informed decisions.
The feature explores some of the principles Ipsotek has learned from more than 25 years of real-world AI video analytics deployments, including:
- Start with the operational problem: Successful projects begin with a clear question: what decision or outcome should this insight improve?
- Get more from existing infrastructure: Where compatible, existing camera estates can support an analytics layer that enables organisations to understand areas such as queues, occupancy, movement, asset utilisation and bottlenecks without starting again.
- Think beyond the AI: Accuracy matters, but so do integration, reliability, scalability, governance and the operational context surrounding each alert or insight.
- Build privacy in from the start: Collect only the data required for the intended purpose, supported by appropriate anonymisation, access controls, retention policies and governance. As Dr Boghos Boghossian explains in the feature, innovation and privacy should progress together.
Connecting the physical and digital enterprise
As generative and agentic AI transform how organisations use digital information, visual intelligence can provide something equally important: context about what is happening in the physical world.
Ipsotek’s AI video analytics platform, VISuite, turns activity captured by cameras into structured, actionable information aligned with an organisation’s operational objectives. Applications range from managing passenger congestion at airports and identifying unsafe behaviour on industrial sites to understanding space utilisation in stadiums and venues, among many other possibilities.
This creates an important connection between the physical and digital enterprise, allowing visual information to complement the financial, transactional and operational data organisations already use to make decisions.
With more than 25 years in the field, Ipsotek works across 17 key industries in 44 countries, with its technology processing more than 700,000 hours of video every day.
