Connect&GO, a leader in guest experience engineering and wearable RFID technology for events and attractions, has announced the arrival of seven new equity partners as it continues to expand into the United States, Europe and Canada.
Myriam Blanchette, director, deployment & customer success; Ariane Desrosiers, director, people & culture; Marc-André Dubé, director, product management; Mathieu Dupuis, vice president, technology & innovation; Virachay Maly, director, finance; François-Pierre Moffet, chief operating officer and Tara Morandi, senior vice president, sales and marketing have now taken an equity stake in the firm, reflecting a strong commitment to the growth plan.
A game-changing platform
Konnect, a cloud-based technology from Connect&GO, manages attractions and effortlessly integrates ten separate systems into a single platform with real-time data. The company recently finished its series A funding in August 2022 with $17 Million (CAD) raised. It has ambitious aspirations to more than quadruple its revenue and installations each year in order to reach a transaction value of $1 billion by 2025.
“Our team has built a game-changing platform for the leisure industry over the last 3 years and we’re only scratching the surface,” says Moffet. “I am very excited to be personally invested in that journey and to continue to scale Connect&GO as an emerging global leader.”
“At Connect&GO we are changing the face of attractions management technology with a product that is truly revolutionary,” adds Dominic Gagnon, CEO and co-founder of Connect&GO. “Our leadership team has played a pivotal role in accelerating our growth over the past few years and remains firmly committed to our mission.”
Connect&GO’s mission
The mission of Connect&GO is to give its clients the tools they need to streamline their processes, boost income, and put the needs of their customers first.
“On top of our mission, I have complete faith in our team,” says Desrosiers. “Our team is smart and highly experienced, but most importantly, we are incredibly dedicated to building strong relationships with our partners and customers.”
“I am honored to have the opportunity to invest in a company that is truly focused on helping our clients grow and innovate while providing unparalled customer support,” says Morandi. “We are dedicated to building something extraordinary and helping attractions solve the very real pain points of disconnected data and inflexible systems.”
Last week, the firm announced that its contract with Super Aqua Club will continue for another three years. This contract extension follows a recent deal to provide the Konnect all-in-one management platform to Le Rond-Point Milieu de jeux, a new FEC in Quebec, and Wild Water Adventure Park in California.
