They approached us with a challenge: They had data and teams scattered worldwide and needed a single hub for all their content. iconik was the perfect fit. Its scalability allowed us to implement various access controls, enabling each team to use it in their own way. By integrating their existing systems, we added metadata to tag content, creating a vast, searchable library that became the central hub for all their content.
