On September 6, the German Hotel Congress and the award ceremony for Hotelier of the Year will take place as a live event in Berlin. We are very happy to be a part of it again with our booth and to present our digital solutions for the hotel industry.
At our booth we will give visitors the opportunity to experience conn4hospitality in action.

We cordially invite you to visit us at our booth and discover the possibilities of the cloud-based overall solution.

We have continued our digital event series: This time with a living room concert. On Wednesday, we all met up again digitally to spend another nice evening together. This time with first-class music. The singer and songwriter Maciek – known to many from The Voice of Germany 2020 – sang his own songs and cover songs as well as songs that we were allowed to wish for spontaneously and was the highlight of the event. Everyone had a lot of fun, laughed together, chatted, drank and of course sang along. Time flew by and so this event in our digital event series was also a complete success. Thank you, Maciek for this special evening! And thank you to all the staff for another wonderful event!
We are proud to have B&B HOTELS as a client who continues to grow and invest in the current period. In the course of this strong growth of the hotel chain, we will now realize further projects together, which we are very much looking forward to.
This year we have already put 8 new B&B locations into operation. We have implemented a fiber optic connection in all new properties, set up the WiFi network and equipped the reception with VoIP telephony. We set up the network infrastructure in exactly the same way as we have already designed and implemented it together with B&B HOTELS for all existing properties. We are very excited about the extraordinary cooperation with B&B HOTELS and look forward to all future projects. “With m3connect, we have found a partner who puts our needs first and works out individual solutions for and with us,” says Steven Eck, Head of IT Systems and Infrastructure at B&B HOTELS, describing our joint collaboration.

From now on, charging stations in our company parking lot will ensure that our electric cars always have enough power. We have invested in 6 company-owned charging stations so that our employees can charge both our company cars and their private cars directly on site. The biggest benefits: We save time and do something good for the environment.
To set a good example, we already have 9 electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles in our fleet today, as well as another electric car as a pool car. We are very happy to see so many electric cars in our parking lot already. We also hope that the number will increase even further in the future due to the charging options that are now available.
Today the digital IHTF 2021 starts and we are very happy to be part of it as an exhibitor. At 1:35 pm (12:35 pm GMT+1), our CEO Emilio Dragas will hold a 30-minute session including a panel discussion on “Future Network” together with Niklas Unger, Director of IT & Digital Business at B&B Hotels. To participate, you can register for free here. Also feel free to stop by our digital booth. Our experts will be there to answer your questions at any time during the next 2 days. We look forward to seeing you there!
m3connect donates 500€ to the Blindenwerkstätte Dorsten GmbH. They belong to the companies that are not having an easy time at the moment. In order for them to be able to continue the wonderful work they do for a long time, they are dependent on orders and donations. The Blindenwerkstätte Dorsten employs people who repeatedly encounter limitations in life due to their disability. Together they make household and textile goods and finish advertising materials with the company logo. They will now use the donated money to make socks, which in turn will be given as a donation to the children’s village “Die gute Hand” in Kürten-Diesfeld. We are very pleased to have been able to support this special company with our orders and donations since many years.
On April 27 and 28, the International Hotel Technology Forum will take place virtually for the first time and we are happy to be part of it again in 2021. The IHTF brings hoteliers and suppliers together to take a look at the technical and digital future of hospitality.
On the 27th of April at 13:35 (12:35 pm GMT+1), our CEO Emilio Dragas will join Niklas Unger, Director of IT & Digital Business at B&B Hotels, for a 30-minute session followed by a panel discussion. Under the motto “Future Network”, they will present our best practices at B&B Hotels. Please feel free to visit us at our virtual booth. Our hospitality experts will be on hand during the two days of the event to offer advice and answer questions via live chat. To participate, simply register here free of charge. We look forward to meeting you online!
Hotel Indigo Dubai Downtown, which opened in September 2020, offers both guests and staff a secure and reliable network at all times. m3connect connected the new IHG® Hotels and Resorts property to the guest WLAN “IHG® Connect” and other property systems.
Furthermore, IP telephony, IPTV, access control, room and energy management systems, digital signage and more were successfully implemented and configured on the basis of Cisco Meraki hardware. Centrally managed via the cloud, the network technology ensures highly stable and reliable connections and enhances the guests’ online experience as well as the productivity of the hotel management team.
One of the main challenges was ensuring the seamless network integration of over 15 different guest facing services in addition to IHG® Connect, whilst segregating and securing access to each individual application. m3connect was able to coordinate the multiple system integrators and execute this task successfully.
“m3connect has successfully provided a network solution that enables an optimal guest experience,” sums up Amila Udana, the Technology Manager at Hotel Indigo Dubai Downtown. “m3connect particularly excelled at coordinating the many service providers and ensuring a smooth and trouble-free system roll-out.”
