U.K. company Spica Technologies is developing a user-centric “workplace experience solution” for global insurance firm Zurich, which will initially be available to approximately 1,600 users at the insurers? new Quai Zurich Campus’ global headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland.
Under the terms of the contract, Spica will install its Luna Workplace Experience App as well as its core GemEx Digital Twin platform.
