Connectvision Information

Connectvision is centrally managed within the hotel's sales and marketing business. Screen content is zoned and scheduled to create a completely integrated communications environment, covering everything from news media through to event and meeting scheduling and corporate branding as well as wayfinding. Connectvision is fully integrated within the hotel's Delphi Meetings and Events Management System, enabling Sofitel London Heathrow staff to offer companies the opportunity to use Connectvision's scheduling and zoning features to its full extent. For a large conference where the entire meetings and events centre is used, Connectvision can be used to create an ambiance for the conference which would be impossible without the digital signage. “Our corporate clients have been delighted with the ability to create a complete conference branding environment by using the screens to show either a single message or multiple messages and visual imagery. We offer them the opportunity to include logos, JPEG images, video clips on the large screens and logos on the smaller meeting room screens,â€� noted the Sales and Marketing Director, Sofitel London Heathrow. As delegates enter the dedicated conference centre entrance they can instantly see details of their meeting and events on overhead LCD screens in the reception area. Moving into the conference centre they are met by a Connectvision-powered wayfinding screen indicating how they can get to their meeting room. Adjacent to the entrance door for each of the 45 meeting rooms is a digital screen giving details of the company, meeting topic and start â€" end times. Sofitel is now exploring opportunities for advertising particularly on the link bridge concourse screens so as guests leave the hotel they will be able to see advertising for retailers within Terminal 5. The Sales and Marketing Director said, “Connectvision is a fantastic system. Until now we hadn't seen digital signage as a potential revenue stream but Connectvision makes this possible.
