In the first half of 2020, Anevia generated revenues of €6.5m, a decline of close to 10% compared to H1 2019.

Resilience of the Enterprise business, hampered by the health situation

The health crisis associated with the Covid-19 pandemic hampered the Enterprise business, with projects to open new hotels or renovate existing ones being postponed due to the almost complete shut-down of the hotel and travel sectors.

Against this backdrop, Anevia wanted to contribute to the sector's recovery and offered any hotels that are customers of its Flamingo head-end three free virtual channel licences to enable them to provide advice and information to guests on the TV screen during their stay, at no additional cost. As part of this initiative, Anevia collaborated with several partners, including 3DR, Dreamearly, Eona, Evermedia, Guest-Tek, Nevotek, STS, TRS and Videlio.

In order to continue developing this business and to benefit from the return to a more normal environment, Anevia has signed two new major partnerships for the distribution and roll-out of its products and associated services:

  • Hoppen, an expert in software solutions for healthcare providers;
  • Intertouch, a global provider of audio-visual technology solutions to the hotel industry, which selected Anevia as its preferred supplier for the EMEA region.

With these two new partnerships that have been added to its existing partnerships, Anevia is now positioned as a major player in OTT and IPTV solutions for the healthcare and hotel sectors in France and Europe.

Sustained activity for the Telecom business, combining new business wins and growth in the existing client base

The Telecom business held up well and was stable in H1 2020 with revenue of €5.3m, a noteworthy performance after four consecutive years of double-digit growth. Over the period, Anevia benefited from the combined impact of:
