("Newmark Security" or the "Company")
Strategic Partnership with UniKey Technologies
Newmark Security Plc (AIM:NWT), a leading provider of electronic
and physical security systems, is pleased to announce that
Grosvenor Technology, its UK based Security and Attendance
solutions provider, has entered into a development and commercial
partnership with US based UniKey Technologies, Inc. ("UniKey") to
develop its access control technology and provide new products.
As an internet-of-things ("IoT") leader focused on best-in-class
mobile access solutions, UniKey's patented and proprietary 'CORE'
platform provides a "frictionless at door experience" for the end
user. It is anticipated that Grosvenor Technology's first products
incorporating UniKey's technology will be seen later in 2017.
Marie-Claire Dwek, CEO of Newmark Security, Grosvenor
Technology's parent company, said:
"We are excited about the advantage UniKey will bring to
Grosvenor Technology compared to its peers in several strategically
important markets. This technology leap will bring further
differentiation to both our Access Control and Workforce Management
products and is expected to accelerate our growth of recurring
revenue. It's a key step on our journey towards being an 'as a
service' provider."
Lee Odess, VP at UniKey added, "Grosvenor Technology was an easy
choice to partner with. We have been really impressed with the
ambition and skill set within their business and we're looking
forward to helping Grosvenor Technology integrate our innovative
technology into their products in the coming months."
Grosvenor Technology has been developing industry leading
solutions for over two decades. Their Sateon Advance portfolio is a
next generation range of hardware that utilises Grosvenor
Technology's proven Sateon software platform to provide a seamless
Access Control solution. This development has been the focus of
significant investment resource and the product has received
excellent reviews since its launch in November 2016.
Mark Knight, Director of Product at Grosvenor Technology, said,
"Our Advance platform has been designed with our customers'
long-term needs in mind. While we've already delivered innovative
features that can be deployed immediately, such as support for IP,
RS-485 and POE+ power as standard, it's this futureproofing that's
really exciting. Our collaboration with Unikey is a great example
of how partnering with specific technology partners allows us to
take a more disruptive approach to product development. We believe
this will enable us to deliver an unparalleled 'at door' experience
that will appeal to end users and forward thinking systems
integrators."
