  Anevia Offers Hotels Free Virtual Channels to Help to Recover Following the
                               Covid-19 Lockdown

Anevia, a leading provider of OTT and IPTV software solutions, has today
announced an offer for its Flamingo head-end customers to help hotels recover
after the Covid-19 shut-down. Starting immediately and continuing until the end
of year, any hotel using Anevia's Flamingo head-end to deliver in-room TV and
video services will be able to get three virtual channel licences to enable
them to provide essential advice and information - i.e. video content streams
compiled by the hotel - to guests during their stay, at no additional cost.

The offer enables hotels to deliver their own virtual channels, accessible via
the in-room TVs, to communicate important information regarding the hotel's
safety measures, medical help and emergency numbers.

Anevia's partners participating in the scheme include 3DR, Dreamearly, Eona,
Evermedia, Guest-Tek, Nevotek, STS, TRS and Videlio.

In the wake of the Covid-19 crisis, hotel guests are likely to place as much
importance on hygiene standards as on price and location. It is therefore
essential for hotels to communicate precautionary measures that enhance the
safety of staff and guests. The free virtual channel licences are being offered
to help hotels with this communication and provide the reassurance needed for
prospective guests to feel confident enough to book their rooms. Hotels
interested in benefiting from the programme should contact their system
integrator to request a free licence that can then be fully activated in just
a few hours.

"The hotel and hospitality sector has been one of the hardest hit by the
pandemic and it is crucial that we bounce back as soon as possible," says
Accor's Senior ICT Solutions Architect and Techno's Leader Aziz Fassassi.
"However, realistically we know that this will be a gradual process as our
guests will need time to regain the confidence needed to travel again. This
initiative by Anevia is a very welcome move and will undoubtedly provide a
major boost to help us compete in the new normal."

"Virtual channels are a great way for hotels to increase their occupancy rates
by showing their commitment to health and safety," says TRS General Manager
Biljic Dragan. "But hotels can also use virtual channels to promote other
products and services they offer - such as restaurants, bars, room service,
spa, golf, etc. - and thereby increase average spending per guest. So they win
all round."

"The hotel industry is an important market for us," says Anevia CEO Laurent
Lafarge. "After these challenging times, we are delighted to make this offer,
starting from now and lasting for the rest of this year, to give the industry
the best possible chance to fully recover without incurring additional costs.
And we are sure that this means of communication can prove essential in
numerous other situations."

To join the programme and offer hotels free virtual channels,
system integrators can contact Anevia through https://anevia.com/contact.
