Genetec has announced its involvement with Convergint’s STEP Up for Schools initiative donating video security systems to schools in the UK and France.
STEP Up for Schools has been created to help educational establishments to improve safety, strengthen emergency readiness, and build long-term protection for students and staff. Already established in North America, this year marks the programme’s first expansion into Europe, significantly expanding its impact and reach.
As part of the initiative, Genetec has donated two StreamVault appliances and the associated software licenses to schools based in Kent, England and Marne, France. These were installed and commissioned by Convergint during its annual Social Responsibility Day in June.
“Our long-standing partnership with Convergint is built on shared values, including a commitment to innovation, customer success, and community engagement,” said Georges Tannous, area vice president at Genetec. “Initiatives like STEP Up for Schools demonstrate what’s possible when technology providers and integrators combine to make a tangible difference.”
