The roadshow is part of GVD’s continued commitment to promote the benefits of IP technologies to the Irish professional security market.  It has recently established the National IP Experience Centre at its offices in Dublin to act as a learning hub providing extensive training and support programmes to assist installers making the transition to IP surveillance. Gordon Smith, Managing Director, GVD, commented: “2011 has seen again year on year growth in the IP video surveillance market in Ireland with over 75% of new installations going IP. NIPX2011 is a big part of our continued commitment & promotion of IP technologies to the security industry in Ireland. We set up our state of the art National IP Experience Centre last year and we’re happy to report that we have helped numerous security companies to make the transition to IP as seamless as possible. This coinciding with our IP training programme has seen many CCTV installers increase their business. As well as the new products, the seminars will cover real life practical Irish case studies of IP security in action. And as always we are bringing the latest and best IP technologies to the Irish security market. We’re particularly delighted to be bringing Paxton access control – they have recently completed a full integration with Milestone the open platform Video Management software company and as a distributor of both, GVD is well placed to offer value added integration security solutions to our customers both existing and new. We’d encourage you to come along and see the infinite possibilities IP presents.” The roadshows will take place on Tuesday 18th October at the Red Cow Moran Hotel, located close to the M50/N7 interchange on the outskirts of Dublin, and Thursday 20th October at the Silver Springs Hotel, Tivoli in Cork.
