Connexion Technologies, which designed and installed Ginn Resorts’ Fiber to the Home (FTTH) infrastructures, will manage the delivery of all telecommunications services. “We are excited to work with Ginn Resorts to personalize the owner and guest experience with our state-of-the-art automation systems,” said Will West, Control4 Chief Executive Officer. “Our partnership with Ginn Resorts, Circuit City and Connexion Technologies ensures a successful automation experience for both Ginn Resorts and its guests.” With delivery planned at nine of Ginn Resorts’ properties, Control4’s user-friendly system, backed by the professional installation of Circuit City and facilitated by Connexion Technologies’ fiber-optic infrastructure, will make it easy for guests to schedule amenities, enjoy entertainment systems and locate favorite channels. “We’re thrilled to be entering into this strategic partnership with Ginn Resorts, Control4 and Connexion Technologies,” said Dave Czerwonka, Circuit City Vice President of new channels. “We’ve developed and executed a technology-style solution for hospitality that is both extremely reliable and easy to operate.” “We have a vested interest in making sure everything comes together,” said Jason Scutt, Executive Vice President of Strategic Operations for Connexion Technologies. “We focus on the managed convergence concept of bringing together all of the technology through strategic partnerships like the ones we have with Ginn, Circuit City, and Control4.” “We make regular investments in the latest technology to improve the Ginn Resorts’ guest experience,” said Bobby Ginn, Ginn Resorts President and Chief Executive Officer. “With the installation of Control4’s system, guests can now access custom settings in any of our resorts.
