Genetec has announced its involvement with Convergint’s STEP Up for Schools initiative.
The company – which has donated video security systems to schools in the UK and France – is reinforcing its commitment to community engagement and protecting the everyday.
STEP Up for Schools
STEP Up for Schools is a social responsibility scheme created to help educational establishments improve safety, strengthen emergency readiness and build long-term protection for students and staff.
Already well-established in North America, this year marks the programme’s first expansion into Europe, expanding its impact and reach.
As part of the initiative, Genetec has donated two StreamVault appliances and the associated software licenses to schools based in Kent, England and Marne, France.
These have been installed and commissioned by Convergint during its annual Social Responsibility Day on 5 June 2026 – a global day of service dedicated to giving back to local communities.
Making a difference
“Our long-standing partnership with Convergint is built on shared values, including a commitment to innovation, customer success and community engagement,” said Georges Tannous, Area Vice President, Genetec.
“Initiatives like STEP Up for Schools demonstrate what’s possible when technology providers and integrators combine to make a tangible difference,” concluded Tannous.
