TOKYO, Dec. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Ricoh has been recognised as one of the world's leading audiovisual (AV) integrators by US publication, Systems Contractor News (SCN), ranking fourth in the SCN Top 50 Systems Integrators 2025 list. This marks the third consecutive year that Ricoh has been listed among the Top 5, reaffirming its sustained growth and leadership in the global AV integrator market.

In addition to these acquisitions, Ricoh has expanded its ecosystem through strategic partnerships with global technology providers, including LG and Logitech. Most recently, Ricoh announced a strategic partnership with Neat, a global innovator in video collaboration devices, to deliver enhanced meeting experiences and hybrid work solutions for organisations worldwide.
