$SMCE SMC Entertainment, Inc. (OTC Pink: SMCE) ("SMC" or the "Company"
, a provider of wireless communications services, digital content, and media distribution solutions, is pleased to announce that WiMundo H.S.I.A. Solutions ("WiMundo" , SMC's wholly owned subsidiary, has launched AktivTrak safety technology product aimed at hospitality industry's upcoming mandated employee safety.
AktivTrak is an advanced Wi-Fi-based end-to-end wireless safety solution for tracking and monitoring hotel staff, indoors and outdoors. AktivTrak provides hotel operators the necessary tools to greatly improve all aspects of staff safety by tracking, in real-time, staff location. In case of emergencies, a staff member activates a panic button device, a hardware component of AktivTrak, to request immediate help. Since AktivTrak utilizes a Wi-Fi wireless network and majority of hotels have existing Wi-Fi wireless infrastructure, AktivTrak implementation and integration costs can be competitively priced. For more information on AktivTrak safety technology product, please visit www.Aktiv-Trak.com.
WiMundo's AktivTrak go-to-market strategy is to become a dominant solution provider in wireless-based hotel safety technology, with a global presence. The initial market focus is North America and expansion to other markets as opportunities arise. To leverage anticipated rapid growth, it's imperative for WiMundo to pursue direct sales, sell product licenses and services directly to hotel operators, and establish indirect sales channels with partnerships in the hospitality industry.
WiMundo's revenue generation model will be two fold; software as a service implementation or out-right product license sale. Software as a service implementation reduces hotel operators' upfront capital investment with a pre-determined monthly fee. Product license sales might be appealing to large hotels requiring a corporate license for multiple hotels. WiMundo has initiated preliminary discussions with clients for early product adaptors.
The market opportunity is projected to grow substantially in the coming years as more cities enact legislations to address hotel employee safety. Recent local safety ordinances, including Section 4-6-180 of the Chicago Municipal Code, Seattle Initiative 124, and New York Hotel and Motel Trades Council, AFL-CIO contract section 70, mandated hotel safety systems for hotel employees. Hotels in New York City are already required to provide safety systems under a collective bargaining agreement with labor unions. Seattle was the first city to enact a safety system ordinance.
Rick Bjorklund, Chairman and CEO of SMC, and Grant Cheeseman, President of WiMundo, both stated, "We are pleased with our combined initiatives for cross product integration that led us to expeditiously reach this point in our product launch. Our decision to create a stand-alone product line and website will enable us to penetrate other markets in addition to the hospitality industry. We believe there are similar staff safety requirements in health care-related industries which would present a great opportunity for us."
