MONTREAL — Genetec, a provider of unified security, public safety and business intelligence solutions, has partnered with RideAmigos, an organization that help commuters. to deliver a simplified experience for workers returning to their offices.

Advanced Camera Technologies Support Genetec, RideAmigos Partnership

Our goal with this joint solution is to help organizations optimize accessibility and use of parking spaces and provide or subsidize alternative transportation services to reduce the burden on employees.”
